Pronunciation: beh seej ee us

Sentence: Gretta suffered from an ingrown sense of entitlement and superiority. Often she would join a group and try to quickly assess how to rise up in the ranks of coolness by selecting the weakest link. Her years in middle and high school prepared her with many opportunities to crush anyone who were not worthy of her attention and who would not be spineless followers of her entourage of cliquiness. However, this all came to a screeching halt when she decided to enter the workforce and had to make nice with all of the other employees. Her besiegious behavior was not tolerated and when she attacked the nicest person within the established office culture, she was immediately shown a different pecking order.

Etymology: besiege + egregious
