megalopig
 n.— «Readers of WW4 REPORT will recall that Dunham was inadvertently responsible for the addition of a new word to the English language. Moussaoui, in his rambling self-penned legal motions attempting to dismiss Dunham as his court-appointed counsel (apparently in the deluded belief that he was colluding with the government against him) described Dunham as a “megalopig.”» —“Frank Dunham, terror war public defender, dead at 64” by Bill Weinberg World War 4 Report Nov. 8, 2006.
