Mensa Fun
I rarely post non-exercise related stuff but this is just too fun.
Here is the Washington Post's Mensa Invitational which once
again asked readers to take any word from the dictionary, alter it by adding,
subtracting, or changing one letter, and supply a new definition. Enjoy!
Here are the winners:

renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of time.

lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.

purpose of getting laid.
