I love the word defenestration. It means throwing something out the window. Not sure why, but I just find this funny. Jason Voorhees often uses defenestration as a means of warfare. He throws corpses through windows, at least in the earlier movies.
I mean even its Wiki entry makes me chuckle.
Although defenestrations can be fatal due to the height of the window through which a person is thrown or throws oneself or due to lacerations from broken glass, the act of defenestration need not carry the intent or result of death. lol
As I understand it, defenestration doesn’t have to include a human being, at least not in modern usage. But in my Jason example, technically, he doesn’t throw the dead bodies out of the window, since he’s outside the cottage, throwing them in. Does the word still apply in such a case? I used to think it was either infenestration or fenestration, but the former doesn’t seem to be a word, and the latter means something else. Never been too sure about this…
also I don’t have a favorite weird word, I just wanted to talk about Friday the 13th XD
