Malemaroking

Malemaroking: noun. Perhaps one of the most fascinating words in the English language Mallemaroking has this word as a close relative. The much more interesting word mallemaroking refers to the carousing of seamen on board Greenlandic whaling ships. On the other hand the significantly more boring word malemaroking refers to the man crowned King of Marrakesh at the annual Marrakesh disco.
