estented
estented /ɛsˈtɛn.tud/ 1. (adj.) Describing action, effort, or creation directed toward a prerequisite or prerequisites of a product, process, or goal, without any intention or ambition of realizing or completing the final product itself. The project was estented; the groundwork was done only to meet preliminary conditions, not to bring the final version into being. 2. (v.) (to estent) To work toward the prerequisite stages or components of something while lacking intention or ambition for its completion or realization. She estented the device by assembling the framework but never cared to see it function. Semantic Note An estented act recognizes and engages with the necessary steps that lead to completion—setup, preparation, foundation—but remains detached from the purpose or fulfillment of the finished result. Importantly, even if the prerequisite being worked on happens to be the final step that would complete the product, the act is still estented when carried out without intent or ambition toward the product itself. Completion may occur incidentally, but never intentionally. Etymology From constructed roots: est- (pseudo-Latin, from esse, “to be”) -tent (from Latin tendere, “to stretch, aim, reach toward”) → Literally, “to be stretched toward something” — indicating directed motion without desire or purpose in arrival. Synonyms perfunctory, provisional, inchoate, half-willed, proto- (prefix) Antonyms intentional, purposeful, driven, resolved
The Urban Dictionary Mug
I mollywopped someone with it and it didn’t break. Nice
Product was as advertised and arrived pretty quickly too! The person loved their gift!
The "Pink Flamingo" colour with white text on a pink background is the best selection for this fine phrase mug. May I suggest you also correct the misspelling of "delightfully" in the default option for a timeless gift.
As always, a great gift.
It looks great. I couldn't have been happier
It’s a mug I would never find in a souvenir shop. I’m a legend in my own home.
I am very please with the mug. Thank you!

This is to test if the Urban Dictionary store rating system is working and not showing fake 5 star reviews.
These are hilarious! Great gifts. Cost seems a bit high but i couldn’t resist.
It’s a great way to store my pencils.
I used this instead of condoms It didn’t work and now my nephew is my son
Ordering was very easy and the delivery to a different address then the billing address was done effortlessly with complete correct order. Was delivered before estimated date which was very exciting. Good job well done by all.
Funny stuff! I wish the mugs cost a bit less, I'd buy more. There's an almost unlimited supply of clever slang.
