    Some words, if you ignore their actual definitions, are prime candidates to be given a new definition. One that comes to mind is "revamp", which I'd define as...

    Revamp:

    To make an ex-vampire into a vampire.

    Of course you'd need to devamp a vampire first, which is just silly. Are there any words you've come across that'd lend themselves well to a hypothetical definition?

            Surely a _rev_amp does the opposite of an amplifier?
