Eggnite: verb. This word has two very similar and yet very different meanings.
1. To start a fire using an egg and only an egg. There are only two recorded cases in history of this ever happening, but it is such an incredible occurrence, that a word was created anyway. One case of something being eggnited was during the great protest against democracy in the Holy Roman Empire and there is some debate among scholars as to whether the fire was caused by the eggs or the torches the protesters were carrying.
2. To set an egg on fire. This is fairly regular canonical practice, performed by priests and the like globally on the 8th of May to commemorate geese.
