The urban dictionary

[agenais]

So first of all, who has heard of the Urban Dictionary? I hadn't until today. It is like a wikipedia, but only for definitions.

Then look up some "urban" words ... here is a taste for you:

bia bia - A beyeatch, that is such a beyeatch that you have to repeat it at least twice

The urban dictionary totally irritates me, because any dumbass can add a definition to it if they want to. I mean, yeah, words like biatch don't have a standardized definition anyway, that's true... But you get people who are just completely making shit up, because their older brother convinced them that it was true or something equally ridiculous. At least in that respect wiki has more regulation... You CAN get weird dumb made up stuff, but any topic even slightly popular is unlikely to be that way, because enough people will see it and edit it.

Also, who made up "ween" as an abbreviation for wiener? I think if you have to abbrebviate wiener which is an incredibly immature term anyway, there's probably a physical justification. There I said it.

agreed ... its weird.

Hey Mary, I found this sweet search engine, it's called Google. You should check it out!

Ohh, and there's this site, where you can watch videos, what's it called... ohh yeah, youtube. You heard of it?

google doesn't hold a candle to the urban dictionary

As an example of both the unreliability and the awesomeness of Urban Dictionary, here's the entry one of my sister's friends made for her.

nice! i was told after i initially saw the dict that it wasn't monitored at all. seems kind of pointless if there is no QC...
