Abandon 

Abandon is when you are left alone in your darkest time. When you are abandoned you feel alone, sad and unwanted. You might get abandoned by friends but, that just means that they are fake friends. Always make sure who are your real friends and who are fake.

Abandon is to be left alone, this mostly happens in your darkest times, when you need someone the most.

When You Cross a Mentally Ill Loner With a Society That Abandons Him and Treats Him Like Trash 

What you fucking deserve.

Guy with facepaint: What do you get when you cross a mentally ill loner with a society that abandons him and treats him like trash?

Some talk show host: I'll call the police!

Guy with facepaint: I'll tell you what you get! You get what you fucking deserve!

*talk show host is shot by guy with facepaint*

Pre-Abandoned 

1. A building or military installation that is never intended to be used, but which must be constructed anyway for political reasons.

2. A public space that planners know will never be occupied or properly used. It gets built anyway to satisfy a planning commission or zoning board.

3. The act of constructing something useless and pointless because it is demanded by an overall "plan."

"Did you hear about those Pre-Abandoned schools in Iraq? They built them out in the desert without any electricity or air conditioning. No one will ever use them, but at least they look good on paper."

abandonista

A person who abandoned London during the global pandemic, running away to the countryside only to return back months or years later. Also known as awful scum.

Another fucking abandonista turned up at the office today after two years cosying up to the shire folks and their backwards ways

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.

Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Abundance of caution 

This type of caution is typically practiced by institutions and larger private sector organisations seeking to minimise exposure to personal injury or similar legal claims but has during the early part of 2020 increasingly been adopted by individuals seeking to cover up their total panic on realising their previous publicly stated position on a matter of significant risk was riddled with hubris and incoherent bravado.

“...out of an abundance of caution, temperature checks are now being performed on any individuals who are in close contact with the President and Vice President...”
