A portmanteau is a word that fuses two words in a single word to create a new word. Some argue that this is yet another diabolical plan of the jews to achieve world domination. Through portmanteaux, the vocabulary is being butchered until we are become robots. A prime example of this already occurring is in Japan, where almost every word is a Portmanteau, and we all know Japanese people are robots, or pedobots.

At least 100 articles on Encyclopedia Dramatica are portmanteaus.

Vocabulary is closely correlated with I.Q. So closely correlated, in fact, that psychologists used to give vocabulary tests as a measure of I.Q. As a result, editors of T.O.W. get bonus points for using the term portmanteau in a wikipedia entry.
