brucify, v:
1: kill by nailing onto style(9); "David O'Brien was brucified"
2: annoy constantly by reminding of potential improvements
[syn: {torment}, {rag}, {tantalize}, {bedevil}, {dun},
{frustrate}]
3: Fix problems that was indicated in an earlier brucification
(of one of the two other meanings).
The word 'brucify' originally comes from the style-reviews of Bruce
Evans of the FreeBSD project, but is now also sometimes used for
reviews just done in his spirit.
