Get the word? Dept: Don't you love this stuff...

[Capn Jimbo]

A word(s) to the unwise...


Regular readers have been introduced to any number of interesting descriptors here, like "sycophantic simians" and the like. Word play is not only fun, it's effective. So when I ran across some good ones per the Washington Post, of course I had to share my favorites. Here goes...

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. I LOVE this one.

Giraffiti (n): Vandalism spray-painted very, very high.

Sarchasm (n): The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it. Another goodie.

Osteopornosis (n): A degenerate disease. Oh no! And I thought it was arthritis!

Ignoranus (n): A person who's both stupid and an ass. You talkin' ta me?

Esplanade (v.), to attempt an explanation while drunk.

Lymph (v.), to walk with a lisp.

Flatulence (n.) the emergency vehicle that picks you up after you are run over by a steamroller.

Rectitude (n.), the formal, dignified demeanor assumed by a proctologist immediately before he examines you.

Oyster (n.), a person who sprinkles his conversation with Yiddish expressions.

Pokemon (n), a Jamaican proctologist. And last (and maybe least)...

Willy-nilly (adj.), impotent.

Bozon proliferation is widely know to be caused by high concentrations of the unstable element Administratium - which also generates high levels of Nozons when exposed to the rare and unidentified idea-charmed muons.
