APPendectomy

removal of an app from your smartphone because it looked like a fun waste of time but now it is just really just annoying and taking up screen real estate on your phone

I loaded up on free apps on my phone but wanted to add some cooler ones so I performed an APPendectomy to get rid of those time and space wasters.

Mississippi Appendectomy

She went into the doctor for a cold and came out with a Mississippi appendectomy.

An appendectomy, also called appendisectomy or appendicectomy, is a surgical operation in which the vermiform appendix (a portion of the intestine) is removed. Appendectomy is normally performed as an urgent or emergency procedure to treat acute appendicitis. Appendectomy may be performed laparoscopically (as minimally invasive surgery) or as an open operation.
