I looked up the word "travesty" using my Mac's built-in dictionary widget, and got this definition-cum-tale of family resentments:
noun
a false, absurd, or distorted representation of something
verb [trans.]
represent in such a way: Michael has betrayed the family by travestying them in his plays.
Geez, Michael, why you gotta be writing mean little plays about your momma, huh? You hurt her so much that she couldn't get it out of her mind even when sitting at the office working on computer dictionary definitions. Way to go, Eugene O'Neill.
And you, Momma! Put down the drink and get back to work!
