costectomy

Surgical removal of all or part of a rib. A procedure popularized in parts of Italy and France during the late twelfth century. Common amongst crusaders who spent years separated from their mistresses. The surgical removal of the rib was believed to facilitate chastity by allowing crusaders better mouth to penis auto-access and the ability to perform fellatio on themselves. Still practiced in parts of rural France.

The procedure is performed only rarely in women.

Francois was better able to focus on his studies after the costectomy.

Contextomy 

The art of removing words from a sentence (or a sentence from a paragraph) to change its context completely. Used commonly in movie posters when a film critic in their review has said something uncomplimentary. Also known as "false attribution" and is related closely to "quotation mining".

A movie or theatre critic may have reviewed the piece saying "The whole thing was a terrific bore, I laughed out loud at the ineptitude of the actors..."

The contextomy on the poster would then read: "Terrific! I laughed out loud!"
