Since this will by my last Wordplay Wednesday, I thought maybe we should go through some definitions you need in order to be part of the Naked World Domination Movement... Some of these are Burrow Words.
Burrow Beliefs and Skills
Digressionism,
n. A religion in which the ability to make random connections and left-hand turns into obscurity are highly-prized attributes. If you can finish up a paragraph halfway around the world from where you started, so much the better.
Etymology: Cruella started it, and I'm a devout worshipper.
Naked World Domination role: This is the official religion of the movement, though we are universally tolerant so long as... you know... there are no clothing-related conflicts...
Misattributing,
v. Unfathomably, this is not a real word. It is the act of intentionally misunderstanding the intention of what somebody says for amusement and sport. The beauty of the word is it inevitably does what it means, especially in a sentence: "I've been misattributing again because I am really bored."
Etymology: This is my superpower. I thought it was a real word. I really did. I have been doing it since the beginning of time, as it is my favorite form of humor but apparently only recently gave it its appropriate name.
Nudify, v. To add nudity or make naked. (can be used as a spell)
Etymology: When I channels Cruella, you get digression-y innuendo. When she channels me, you get words like nudify (which she Googled and found), but the movement has taken off.
Procrastinakeding,
v. Putting off whatever you're supposed to be doing by getting naked instead.
Etymology: BrioNI
