Abrogate- (v.) to abolish, repeal

Close your eyes. Imagine you’re still a junior in high school and you have no idea where the hellcrap your life’s going.

It’s mid-November.

You’ve never worked harder in your life.

You’re exhausted, and the guy at the post office knows your name.

You’re about to punch that kid wearing that stupid Yale sweatshirt. Fuck Yale.

All you want is a big envelope.

And a good SAT score.

You check your inbox, and what do you see? The Official SAT Question of the Day.

Yup, at some point in your life, you asked someone to send you a question every single day to drive home the fear that you might go nowhere in life.

Open your eyes.

When’s the last time you’ve used “abrogate” in a sentence? Shame on you.
