Learning terrific new words that have much potential for parody.

Today's word is brought to us by David Radler, the rat who's going to fink on Lord Black: disgorgement.

Officially it means:

Quote:
A repayment of ill-gotten gains that is imposed on wrongdoers by the courts. Funds that were received through illegal or unethical business transactions are disgorged, or paid back, with interest to those affected by the action. Disgorgement is a remedial civil action, rather than a punitive civil action.

. . .

to discharge forcefully or as a result of force
Now, with all the loyering and repo-wraiths on REB, that's just got to be a word with much potential for the rpg.
