5. a laugh expressing disdain

7. To fool; to outwit.

Default [Dixonary] Round 2884: SNERDLE Vote

It's pretty unlikely that it's 8 or 10, so I'll vote for those.

8. A disposable hairnet.

10. another name for numerology.

Default [Dixonary] Round 2884: SNERDLE Vote

I'm amused by how strong the two trends are. I'm going with a couple
unpopular choices, 2 & 12.

2. to earth-up a row of plants so as to leave a shallow irrigation trench

12. [N. Eng.] the froth left inside a beer glass after emptying it.

Since the results aren't out yet, and in case you'll take a late vote: 11 and 13.
