protestimate

When you intentionally provide an inflated estimate for a task because you really don't want to do it and you're hoping it will be a non-starter due to it's perceived size/cost/duration.

The software engineer provided an 18-month protestimate to product management for the new architecture that would've replaced much of his previous work.

Protestant surrealism

Democracy as emergent from an aesthetic critique of Protestantism. Democracy as a Catholic critique of Protestantism.

Protestor/police state

A country protestors and police are trying to take control of from everyone that is not a protestor or a cop. Not much different than the way medical workers, scientists, and government officials have tried to take control of it from the people who elected them (scientists and medical workers dont get elected) by convincing everyone who's not a medical worker, scientist, or government official that they're all heroes.

The country will become a protestor/police state without a fight.

produstination

Procrastination on one task by being productive on another non-essential task.

"I produstinated so much yesterday. I had a major report I needed to get done but I spent the whole day cleaning the house, instead."

"Damn. Did you at least finish the report today?"

"No... I changed my tires."

"Fuck, that's some serious produstination."
