Funny spelling mistake

I was reading a thread on the miata board about clueless parts people and thought that this spelling mistake was fantastic.

Quote:
I AM a PARTS pusher :P. First to answer a question, that elctronic catalog is easly fooled, you do NOT have to enter the engine size. But it is done to CYA. And being a parts guy it inferiorates me to no end to go into a Kragens or even another dealer ship and have to show them how to do there job.
I think inferiorate should be a new word. I used to work with a short guy that had a Napoleon complex. I think that would fit him perfectly.

Inferiorate -- IN feer ee or ate v - to make someone with low self-esteem angry via frustration at their own self-perceived impotence. Often corresponds to small pee pees or short guys with Napoleon complex.

I think that you should be etymologically recognizified as the creator of this new word.

Hmmm...

Recognizify -- wreck ogg NIZE a fy, v - to give magnified recognition to a worthy recipient. Example: creator of a new important word (often inferiorating the recipient's jezealous peers).

Then there's those short guys with big pee pees and their insufferable Napoleobaloney complexes.

I feel inferiorated all the time. Especially when I talk to the bank.

This thread is about new words. "Embiggen" is a perfectly cromulent word.

I have an e-mail saved at work that was sent to my entire project a few years ago (about 200 people).

After making a small mistake, this lady sent out an apology, which began with: "Excuse my incontinence..."

Hope it was an e-mail and not soggy hardcopy.

Mazing how many things are mispelled. Irregardless, you can find all sorts of fopas from thither and yarn. I bet if you were to write them up you might win a Pullet Surprise. I can only think of a few to wet your appetite. The problem is, I just eat a whole bunch of my Wifes vitals now I feeling sleepish.

This thread is written very simply and crudly...

Them planed solutions fall mainly on the plain - usually in Spain, right?
