Staze

Staze: verb. To give such a strong and tantalising stare or gaze, so as to freeze the staree or gazee in place. This technique was frequently employed to an extreme effect by the Gorgons of Ancient Greece, who contrary to myth, were actually a family of highly skilled sculptors, who froze their subjects in place with their stare, while they carved their exact replicas out of marble. The rumour about snake-heads and other such nonsense was started by their rivals, a significantly less skilled family of sculptors. However their clever undermining strategy will soon be eradicated thanks to this blog.
