Carol Burris forwarded this really cool new definition to me; it came from her adult daughter.
There is a new verb. If you go for a job interview, do a truly horrible job, and get the job anyway, you say, “I DeVos’d it.”

Except that most people don’t have the money to BUY the job they want after showing that they are completely INEPT in the interview.
I thought DeVos’d meant you had an irrational fear of grizzly bears turning up in highly unlikely places.
“DeVos’d”
I never married Reality
So can not be DeVos’d
Reality is not for me
It’s what I hate the most
No realty in reality.
Also see “Pulled a Betsy.”
And people who live in a fundamentalist fantasy bubble are called DeVos’d from Reality.
Outstanding.
Good one!
A great catch.
Off topic, but the father of VAM, William Sanders died. His legacy is a deeply flawed statistical technique for evaluating teachers. Ohio and other states have hardwired VAM and the step child SLOs into teacher evaluation schemes. The Ohio version is marked by SAS. It is proprietary meaning the exact formula for the calculation of VAM is not a matter of public record.

That is so cool!
Awesome!
Despite her billions, she does not command respect- just repugnance and ridicule, with the exception of those politicians who gladly take her filthy money. I like this definition!
A perfect neologism that I hope makes it into dictionaries of record (not that I don’t hold Urban Dictionary in high and hilarious esteem).
