Hab said, "Do I see an entire sub-genre of redefinitions based on "dis-" meaning 'this'?"

How about a different sub-genre?

A priest who has been expelled has been defrocked.
A lawyer who has lost his license has been disbarred.

Hence:
diversified: a poet who has lost his poetic license
disenchanted: a witch expelled from the coven
disjointed: a hippie who's "sold out" to "the man"

quote:

---

_disjointed:_ a hippie who's "sold out" to "the man"

---

"disjointed" - a hemphead doing time for possession

"disjointed" - a con released on parole

"disappointment" - miss a meeting, stand up a date
