There was an email doing the rounds a good while ago where you added or removed one letter from a word to get a totally new meaning:
My two favourites were:

Sarchasm - def'n: the gulf in wit between the person cracking a joke and the wuckfit who doesn't understand it.

wuckfit, the bogs dollocks, and fupid stucker..

2) Bleed out VERY quickly and DIE.
Not much of a choice really?

Kinda sums it all up rather neatly don't you think.
