2.
A seemingly endless period of time when your older brother viciously rubs his knuckles back and forth across your head, which serves as a means for you atoning for some egregious action against him (e.g. embarassing him when he brought a girl home, borrowing his autographed baseball, telling your parents about his stash of girlie magazines).
"After I busted Bill's Little League trophy, he put me in nugatory for a full ten minutes."
