The act of throwing someone out of a window. It was repurposed for discussion among intellectual circles to refer to cases in history in which a leader or influential individual was forcefully deposed from power and replaced by the person who deposed them. Originally repurposed due to the creation of the French First Republic, when many Jacobin loyalists (radical anti-monarchists) threw sympathisers of constitutional monarchy (moderate revolutionary) out of windows to fill their representative seats with other Jacobin loyalists.

Get the Defenestrated mug.the act of offensively taking down ones fence, or that of a neighbor, in order to protect oneself and others from grave injury while falling through a window or blackish hole
Ted was home to defenestrate while his wife was away, but the damn neighbor cat was on the ledge watching, so ted had to defenestrate the whole neighborhood because the cat would scratch his right to defenstrate alone should he vote on ballot measure 12453b and decide not to defenestrate at all, would hardly seem logical given how much of his life he'd already spent defenestrating and lame in certain defenstrational instances

Get the defenestration mug."Defenestrated" is past tense form of the verb "defenestrate." Defenestration is the act of grabbing something and lobbing it through a window at full speed, maximum velocity. It may also indicate dismissal from a higher status or power.
My little brother was playing Geometry Dash. On his 8,447th attempt on Theory of Everything 2, he defenestrated the family Guinea pig. Threw it out the window. Absolutely thundercunted it, nothing else to it.
