Created by: petaj

Pronunciation: marl-bo-rot

Sentence: Marlborot is a natural process resulting in a painful death after years of hacking coughs, and chest pains. Unfortunately sufferers of Marlborot also commonly experience a lack of oxygen to the brain. This in turn has resulted in a strange group faith that marlborot is actually the natural biodegradation of cigarette butts.

Etymology: Marlboro (brand of ciggies - Yul said "Don't smoke, whatever you do, just don't smoke") + rot (decomposition)
