There is a wonderfully calming effect of the defenestration of an offending item, though one should open the window first, or you'll have cleanup to do.

I came across this word in a book I was :read:. The MC threw one of the bad guys out of a window, and another MC used that word when describing what transpired. I recall, I was more surprised there was a word to describe this act than of the deed itself. I mean, he didn’t die, and he was a bad guy after all.  ;)
