· Karmageddon (n): it's like, when everybody is sending off all these really bad vibes, right? And then, like, the Earth explodes and it's like, a serious bummer.
· Decafalon (n.): The grueling event of getting through the day consuming only things that are good for you.
· Glibido (v): All talk and no action.
· Dopeler effect (n): The tendency of stupid ideas to seem smarter when they come at you rapidly.
· Arachnoleptic fit (n.): The frantic dance performed just after you've accidentally walked through a spider web.
· Beelzebug (n.): Satan in the form of a mosquito that gets into your bedroom at three in the morning and cannot be cast out.
· Caterpallor (n.): The color you turn after finding half a grub in the fruit you're eating.
And the big winner was …
