I just watched a movie preview for the new Sherlock Holmes movies, which looks pretty good. Anyhow, they used the word depravity, which I think is my new substitute for debauchery. Classier, I think - it implies more of a choice taken than random behavior. However, that is clearly not part of the definition as you can see below......

Pronunciation:
\di-ˈpra-və-tē also -ˈprā-\
Function:
noun
Date:
1641
