Change the meaning of a word by applying phonetics to the word. I'll give 2 examples.

Politics - POLY TICKS - > a bunch of bloodsuckers
Goverment -GOVERN MENTE -> The control of mind

This may not last long, but looking at the timing, it might not get too spammy for now. But yeah no discussion usually is cause for closing

This is being a bit liberal with interpretation but:

supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Mahatma Gandhi was a peculiar person. He walked barefoot everywhere, to the point that his feet became quite thick and hard. He often went on hunger strikes, and even when he wasn't on a hunger strike, he did not eat much and became quite thin and frail. He also was a very spiritual person. Finally, because he didn't eat much and when he did his diet was peculiar, he developed very bad breath.

Making him a....super-calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis! :D dat copypasta.

Some words with "re" in them are very easy to do this to. For example:

Retard - Re tard -> someone who is late (tardy) again

Here's another:

Physics - Phys ics -> people who think physical activity is icky

Edit: I thought of another.

Suburb - Sub urb -> below the city

It seems as though words with prefixes that don't adhere to their usual meaning are the easiest.

Interesting game. Lots of potential for fun.
But I have an idea to make it better and more collaborative/participatory.

Why not: poster 1 post a word, say word "A", ideally a long multisyllable one, then the next poster should make "change the word" "A" then post another word for the next poster and so one. the next poster cannot start a new word without answering the one above him. Violators will be perm banned (jk) :p

Me start:

I dont think you are. Based on the explanation of the OP, i think you should stick to the original sound-form of the word but can change its individual meaning, while still making sense.

a good example would be sorrowptoss's
Together -> To Get Her -> Trying to get laid.

But to answer you:

MERCANTILE

'MERCAN TILE - A tile from America



so again
