#D259 (doze to dracaena)

I read from doze to dracaena.

 

 

The game "The Dozens" is basically a Roast Battle (or some other term I can't think of right now). And the etymology is unclear.

The word "drab", in terms of a prostitute, is probably from the Gaelic "drabag".

The word of the episode is "doze".
