zoglodyte

zoglodyte(noun): an entity whose reason has been twisted by the leader of the Dark Dragons. typically is fat, has bad acne, sweaty odor, many tattoos, smells of cigarettes or marijuana, or has some other immediately visible maintenance-related impediment (tortured soul manifest in flesh) that a woke man in Hoffman lenses can spot from a mile away. Cannibalistic entities who have their natural desire to do good twisted until they hunger for the flesh of their exceptional brethren and feel that they are helping the downtrodden when they suppress a beautiful spirit.

"I was going to roleplay a stereotypical street blackman in a decidedly not meanspirited manner for big laughs at the party, but my coworker was present and I feared he would feed me to the zoglodytes."

What do these words all have in common? I learned them as a 12 or 13 year old playing Everquest and peppered them into my essays for the rest of my academic career. Got an A on every paper I ever wrote that was graded by lazy English teachers who were wowed by big words. Worked until I got to college. Resulted in an insane score on the vocab portion of the GRE; at least 2 of the words above were on the test.
