Etymology: "Superannuated" was first put to use in English in the 1600s, having been borrowed from Medieval Latin "superannuatus," past participle of "superannuari" ("to be too old") -- from Latin "super-" ("over" or "above") and "annus" ("year"). Shortly thereafter, we made our own verb, "superannuate," from the adjective. "Superannuate" meant "to pension off" as well as "to declare obsolete," meanings that are still in active use.

"Superannuated" can be a good word for referring to something (or someone) that has outlived its usefulness (such as "a drawerful of superannuated neckties").
