No. 8 fits RHP
The Washington Post's Mensa invitational 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.
Here are the winners:
*1. Cashtration *(n.): The act of buying a house, which renders the subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of time.
*2. Ignoranus* (n.): A person who's both stupid and an askhole.
*3. Intaxication *(n.): Euphoria at getting a tax refund, which lasts until you realize it was your money to start with.
*4. Reintarnation* (n.): Coming back to life as a hillbilly.
*5. 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.
*6. Foreploy* (n.): Any misrepresentation about yourself for the purpose of getting laid.
*7. Giraffiti* (n.): Vandalism spray-painted very,very high.
*8. Sarchasm *(n.): The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the Person who doesn't get it.

HAA haa! crowley applied for mensa!
Just for information, to qualify one has to reach a score of 130 in a socalled "Intelligence Test", which consist of questions on different aspects of intellectual gifts.
A high IQ is not correlated to
* social skills. (this contribution may serve as an example)
* success (a lot of geniuses end poor)
* ability to play chess or any other game
* good marks at school /university/whereever
