The confusion that comes from things not being in their right place—like when you’ve moved everything around while you’re cleaning your house—is called huckmuck.
Abligurition appears to have entered our language through being included in Nathan Bailey’s 1724 Universal Etymological English Dictionary, in which he defined the word as “a prodigal spending in Belly-Cheer.” A few decades later Samuel Johnson borrowed most of this definition (but unfortunately took out the part about “belly cheer”), and said that it was “A prodigal spending on meat and drink.” Despite being included in these two fine works abligurition is rarely, if ever, found outside the confines of a dictionary. In the event that it is encountered in general writing, it typically is still not in natural use; people will occasionally employ it to show that such a word exists.
