Of course, Sloan does nothing but abboragate. In fact,
he has the hottest abboragator in town.
Pardon me. *On my planet we have no word "abboragated." *Pray tell, what
does it mean and what language is it from?
It is of Andean origin, and it is a portmanteau (to use Lewis
Carroll's delightful term) combining the meanings of "abrogated" and
"corrugated," especially when the two functions are performed by an
abbot. Not to be confused with "aborigated," which means "to be
irrigated by an aborigine."
