Caroopah–_n_ An edible automobile, often garnished with shredded cheese and served in a fried tortilla wrapping.[var. carooopah.] Portmanteau word derived from “car” and “chalupah.” Var. sp. derived from dealership commercials. Carooopahs tend to get very few miles per gallon. The advantage to owning one is that you never have to stop for food while on long road trips. In recent years, the term “caroopah” has been co-opted by students and starving artists to mean “a car (or other expensive object) that was absolutely not worth the money and will make you ‘eat’ not only the cost of its purchase, but the cost of its continual upkeep.” Next word: Grimplekaw. ---
