Eviscerated is really quite a lovely word. It’s fun to say - try it… Come on, really say it. Let it roll off your tounge a few times. Wet your lips and and say it slow and low - pretend you’re the sophisticated villain of an old B-movie. You’ve got the slicked back hair and thousand dollar suit.
E vis cer a ted… Ahhh… Yes, See what I’m talking about?
Even saying it in French couldn’t make that word any more sexy. It’s a shame that short of news reports about serial killers, the word just doesn’t get much mouth-time. I’m trying my best to rectify (another fun but often misunderstood word) the situation - much to the bewildered stares of my peers.
“Hey, Keith, I just eviscerated the code-base to the project we’re working on…”
“Geez, Glenn, that movie was eviscerated of all meaningful content!”
My next fun word project… Exsanguination.
