Pronunciation: lacks-i-vay-shun

Sentence: Capone's laxevasion meant he never buried the bodies himself- he proclaimed himself especially inept at digging, or indeed using any garden implement.

Etymology: From "lax" and "evasion" and of course "tax evasion" which, though wrong, is probably the kinda crime we all wish we could get away with. Also nods at "lacksidaisical".

COMMENTS:

hmm...doesn't laxevasion suggest you're evading laxness which would prompt you to embrace unpleasant tasks - I do like the sound of the word though - Jabberwocky, 2007-03-29: 11:22:00

Aint you never heard of a double negative- they're doubly negative. The Spanish love them. - Bulletchewer, 2007-03-29: 11:31:00

Does he really expect us to believe he's never seen a vaccuum?
