Mensa, the outfit of folks with a high IQ, recently held a
contest for the best new words. Here
are the top ten:
1. Intaxication: Euphoria at getting a tax refund,
which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
2. Reintarnation: Coming back to life as a hillbilly.
3. Bozone (n.): The substance surrounding stupid
people that stops bright ideas from penetrating. The bozone layer,
unfortunately, shows little sign of breaking down in the near future.
4. Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic
wit and the person who doesn't get it.
5. Hipatitis: Terminal coolness.
6. Karmageddon: It's like, when everybody is sending
off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, you know, the Earth
explodes and it's like, wow, man, a serious bummer.
7. Glibido: All talk and no action.
8. Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito
that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.
9. Osteopornosis: A degenerate's disease.
10. Ignoranus: A person who's both stupid and a
rectum.
