"Floridation n. the process of adding mind-altering chemicals into the public water supply, as has been done in Florida since the late 20th century. The chemical additive most commonly used in the early 21st century, a water-soluble Mind Debilitator mixed with rum and feldspar (commonly known as Rum-Feld-WMD) was perfected by Florida's ex-governor, Jeb Bush, while he was doing time with his two brothers at Leavenworth. In small doses, Rum-Feld-WMD has been found to offer those who imbibe it a pleasant imperviousness to reality. In larger doses it has proven to be fatal.

ralphnadir 1. n. the lowest point in any process, whereby the urgent need to alter that process becomes manifest. The ralphnadir of America's unrepresentative two-party system led to the establishment, in 2012, of our current proportional allnite-party system. 2. v. the act of creating such a low point while simultaneously undoing one's reputation. He ralphnadired their relationship when he condi-scendingly denied that he'd cheneyed their joint account."

Funny stuff!
