Here are more of the "word verifications" I spotted while commenting on blogs; along with my impression of their meaning. Each one has been verified against dictionary.com and wikipedia. First edition was posted as Round 1. Today's words:
ruffleas
dictionary.com - NOT a word, suggested "ruffles "
wikipedia - NOT a word, suggested "ruffles"
Lew's definition: ruf-fleas - don't mess with these little pests, they bite!
fletag
dictionary.com - NOT a word, suggested "flotage"
wikipedia - NOT a word, suggested "flag"
Lew's definition: fle-tag - what ruffleas play on your ankles.
tochek
dictionary.com - NOT a word, no suggestions
wikipedia - NOT a word, suggested "touche".
Lew's definition: to-chek - what one should do to spelling before posting.

I had no clue about the first two but I guessed the third one. Now if these mistakes we made in comments, there's not much you can do but delete the whole thing and write another comment which gives a false impression of how many comments you received because the deleted one is counted as one anyway. I have on occasion gone back and re-wrote my mispelled word in a post. It happens. Called life.
These are fun, Lew. I play with the possibilities when I come across word verification (which I don't love but sometimes use because of those annoying spammers who try to kill the fun). I like your sense of humor.
Funnyness flows frittingly .
Tochek made me laugh!
Yes, I, too, like your sense of humour. You had me grinning from the first line when I grasped your intent.
It is astounding that sometimes the WV can be pertinent to the post.
I love what you are doing, "Verifified Words" is truly funny!
It has been my impression over the last year that word verification creates words that seem to reflect "real" words, whereas before they used to be more surreal.
