Pronunciation: cap ənˈsā sh ən

Sentence: This lid can't win, Joseph hollered. In clear case of capensation, Joseph was willing to risk exacerbation of his hernia and tendonitis to to get the peanut jar open. So what if his boss couldn't remember his name. So what if his date dozed off every time he started talking. This cap was coming off. He finally resigned to the trick his mother used to use. He turned the jar over and banged it on the counter. Success! Should he tell his date about the glass shards? Nah! Serves her right for making fun of his car. Didn't she say something about being allergic to peanuts anyway??

Etymology: cap (a protective lid or cover for an object such as a bottle) + compensation (something that counterbalances or makes up for an undesirable or unwelcome state of affairs)
