Semi-Tourism: Taking one's vacation in a Mack truck. Not a popular practice.

Eco-sadism: Environmental protection carried out in such a way as to cause the most pain and suffering: e.g., recycling laws that require separation of pint bottles from quart bottles, domestic beer bottles from imported, tabloid newspapers from broadsheets . . .

Bi-Darwinism: The belief that some people (e.g., Nelson Mandela) are fully evolved, while others (e.g., Vin Diesel) are not.

This week's contest was suggested by Reene Grossman of Washington. Take any common prefix (mega-, psycho-, proto-, pseudo- , neuro-, techno-, etc.) and attach it to any well-known "ism" and define the new term, as in the examples above. First-prize winner gets a suitcase-size disguise kit distributed to the media by the makers of the film "Master of Disguise," in the hopes of garnering good publicity for a movie that proved so dreadful that Post film critic Stephen Hunter walked out of the screening in mid-movie and refused to review it.

First runner-up wins the tacky but estimable Style Invitational Loser Pen. Other runners-up win the coveted Style Invitational Loser T-shirt. Honorable mentions get the mildly sought-after Style Invitational bumper sticker. Send your entries via fax to 202-334- 4312 or by e-mail to losers@washpost.com.U.S. mail entries are no longer accepted due to rabid, spit-flying fanaticism. Deadline is Tuesday, Sept. 3.

Employees of The Washington Post, and their immediate relatives, are not eligible for prizes. Pseudonymous entries will be disqualified. The revised title for next week's contest is by Thos Witte of Gaithersburg.
