Robot Unicorn Defenestration (RUD)
The strategy of chatting your friends on facebook in the hopes of making them lose control of their unicorn on Robot Unicorn Attack and getting a less than desirable score for one of their rounds.

When you hit someone with a chair and then throw them out a window
“Did you hear about tom?, his girlfriend discovered he was cheating and she committed chair-based assault and defenestration on him.”
When the Overton Window shifts around people that don't change themselves yet end up under different labels afterwards after being thrown out/defenestrated of the original windowframe.
Changing labels without changing those in question in a way similar to the Red Queen Theory where someone needs to keep running in order to stay in the same spot. The running here would be chasing after the shifting Overton Window.
Overton Defenestration occurs when the window throws you out itself while you do nothing in response to the Overton Window shifting around you.
"I was a liberal by the 1990's definition. I guess I still am. My positions haven't changed all that much, but the goalposts have been moved so far that I don't fit in anywhere anymore."
The act of launching a living person out of a window in Prague, with considerable speed. Preferably an Austrian Embassador, albeit a priest who has his own opinions works out fine as well.
Having happened thrice (1419, 1483 and 1618), Prague is the town with the highest risk of being defenestrated from behind, while simply enjoying the view!!!
So, should you ever visit the Czech Capital (its nice there), be careful to always maintain a safety distance of roundabout 7 metres from ALL windows, ESPECIALLY in town halls and/or other official buildings!!!!!!!!!
Oh man that guy nearly defenestrated me there... Lucky that I was warned about the Defenestrations of Prague on Urban Dictionary...
The feeling of wanting to be defenestrated.
Person1: Are you okay?
Person2: Yeah, I'm just feeling a bit defenestrational, would be nice to be thrown out a window...
Person1: Sir, this is a wendy's...
A useless way of saying "to throw someone out of the window"
the mass defenestration of middle management

The act of throwing someone out of a window. It was repurposed for discussion among intellectual circles to refer to cases in history in which a leader or influential individual was forcefully deposed from power and replaced by the person who deposed them. Originally repurposed due to the creation of the French First Republic, when many Jacobin loyalists (radical anti-monarchists) threw sympathisers of constitutional monarchy (moderate revolutionary) out of windows to fill their representative seats with other Jacobin loyalists.
"What happened to Omar al Bashir?"
"Oh, the military got rid of him in an act of defenestration"
