Excremunicate
Created by: Nosila
Pronunciation: ex kree myoonee kayt
Sentence: Morty knew it was going to be one of those days, when Myra would excremunicate him for trying to clean her cat Mungo's litter box. Mungo went turdally mental and attacked Morty as he carried the pan full of ripe cat poopsadaisies and tripped over a stool on the way outside. Morty could not win for losing. Myra was more concerned for the crap strewn all over her dungalow than for the fact that Morty lay in a dung heap on the kitchen floor. How could he save feces over this debacle? He felt like he had just bought a bowel on the Schlemiel Of Misfortune game of life!
Etymology: Excrement (waste matter (as urine or sweat but especially feces) discharged from the body) & Excommunicate (exclude from a community)

Had fun with your definition today, purpleman! A rose for your good cartoon, James! (an aside for pupleman and Stevenson about a past verbot: You both noted that beefcant got votes but no comments. It was because most of the compliments I thought turned my face red! If you care to go back and take a look, I'm tickled pink to tell you I finally came up with one I could post!)
Smells like a rose or maybe a strawberry. Thanks Silveryaspen! ~ James
