pursue other opportunities

To be fired or forced out of a job due to failure or scandal. The "opportunities" to be "pursued" may include crying, applying for unemployment, eating cheetos, and watching daytime talk tv. A close analogue, usually used in politics or sports, is the departure "to spend time with his family."

Weed Purgatory

<Noun> A wretched state of mind stoners encounter when too high and their remote to the TV won't work; usually stuck on the worst infomercial ever made. These fools are too lazy to get up to change the channel and are thus, in a torturous place because they are forced to watch bad television.
Jay accidentally stepped on the remote so he and Miller were stuck watching Oxy Clean infomercials all night long. They were condemned to weed purgatory.
