But Ed, if Abs knew he was about to be fired he could have gotten in first and said 
 
Abs quat* tu late
 
Meaning, me (abs) am quitting far too late - should have done it before
 
 
*Urban dictionary�s definition of quat = the past tense of quit

abdicate/quality
A polite way of saying that it is obvious a particular student didn �t put any effort into the work he handed in, that s/he didn �t even intend to provide quality work.
 
"By absquatulating often, despite repeated exhortations, Johnny seems to have resigned himself to failing this year and I, his teacher, am left exhaustipated*"
 
*exhaustipated=too tired to give a shit

@MarionG LOL. I �m going to introduce exhaustipated into my vocabulary!

However, to absquatulate is to speak with an air of absolute authority, while treating others � opinions with complete disdain, on abstract philosophical matters about which you haven �t the foggiest idea. Are absquatulators going to let their ignorance interfere with their pontificating?? Are they heck! They are going to absquatulate ad nauseam. (Note: absquatulators become much worse after a drop of the old alcohol. The only solution is to keep their glass full until mercifully they drift off into the Land of Nod.)

Edit: �fess up time: I�m a bit of an absquatulator myself!

"ABSQUATULATE"
 
I must intervene, to explain that "to absquatulate" is the verb for an unfortunate Medical Condition which even medical personnel are unwilling to discuss in public, unless they have a Sanitary Engineer present.
 
The "Abs" are the Abdominal Muscles, which allow a person to bend the body, lower the underclothes, and adopt the "Squat" position.
 
In normal circumstances, a perfectly ordinary bodily function then follows.
 
However, there are some unfortunate Medical circumstances, when the patient is not sufficiently quick, and this individual will "absquatulate".
 
The meaning of the word becomes clear, when we realise that the pronunciation is: "Abs Squat Too Late".
 
It is at times like this, that Hospital Visitors should always have a joke ready. 
 
"Why are there no Aspirins in the Brazilian Jungle?"
 
"I don �t know: why are there no Aspirins in the Brazilian Jungle?"
 
"Because the Paracetamol".  ("Because the Parrots eat �em all").
