procrastibaking

— I am not suggesting that all change is for the worse. I was recently introduced to procrastibaking: a portmanteau word to describe the process of baking for the sole reason of avoiding other tasks. This seems far more like change we can believe in. Like the addition of foreign words to our language centuries ago, procrastibaking provides a word for a concept for which we did not have one previously. ¶ Our language will undoubtedly grow and change over time, but we must determine whether all change is for the better. Though neither seems like an overly productive activity, for our language's sake we need more procrastibaking and less LOLing.
