Pronunciation: BOSS-mui-late

Sentence: Mark W. bossmulated the CEO with such shameless abandon. He actually would time his trips to the urinal to confirm whether he (Mark) needed to proceed with the planned circumcision procedure.

Etymology: VERB: "Boss" (BMOC) + "Emulate" (to copy, follow one's lead, and in this case be the ultimate brown noser)
