Urban Dictionary is "a crowdsourced online dictionary" for slang vocabulary and phraseology, started by a certain Aaron Peckham, in 1999.
This so-called dictionary is a useless tool, put together by a crowd of illiterate halfwits, and blessed by the founder, Peckham, who being a moron too, he is at least a "smarty pants" who is probably making some "dough" out of this trashy, worthless slang wordbook.
I suppose no one checks the definitions, spelling, grammar, syntax of the contributors, and certainly the veracity and existence of the words are not checked either. No proper citations are given.
They do include sexist and racist comments, and there are sprinkles of insulting terminology, and plenty of ignorant references to the female anatomy.
Urban Dictionary´s scholarly definition of "pussy": "Something men babies spend 9 months getting out of - and the rest of their lives trying to get back into ..." (The other definitions offered, I would never dare copy here.)
The idea is good, the result, terrible. I may try to put together a current on-line dictionary of English slang, following lexicographical acceptable standards. What do you think?
