exing

Striking through text

Exing is crossing out or marking with an X, typically to delete, cancel, or eliminate something: She was exing out names on the list.

The word also means ending a romantic relationship, turning someone into an ex: He's been exing girlfriends left and right.

Sometimes spelled X-ing.
