aberrational

There’s a chance, of course, that we’ll look back a month or three from now and be able to write off Griffin’s ugly 4-for-14 game Sunday as an aberration in an otherwise good season.

While 2020 may have been a particularly extreme year in contrast to individual years in the past, scientifically and looking forward, what’s more meaningful is that 2020 was not really an aberration.

Shur added, “Kevin’s conduct, while serious, was an aberration in a life otherwise characterized by hard work, determination, and dedication to the service of others.”

There is, however, a still graver and quite insuperable distinction between the parallactic path and the aberrational path.
