Dictionary
The Washington Post's Style Invitational asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding, subtracting, or changing one letter and supply a new definition. Some winners. This sounded like a fun word-game for me to play. I tried my hand at it:
infartuation: a whirlwind romance that breaks when you least expect it and leaves you feeling deflated.
sanguiner: a goth performance poet.
immatune: the contrived excuse sung on the day after the office party
lens flaying: the practice of focusing extreme heat on newbie artists who resort to the use of filters.
igtolerance: I don't care what it means. We don't do that sort of thing around here.
palindrone: A friendly parent-to-child speech that would be just as useful if spoken backwards.
