Good news...today I was notified that my two entries to The Urban Dictionary were accepted and published. We all know that The Urban Dictionary is second only to anything beginning with "Wiki" when it comes to facts and sources for information in their relative fields. I liken The Urban Dictionary to a thesaurus and dictionary for ghettoese. My two words/phrases? Behold..."Blogger Brain" and "swamp sow". I used the term "blogger brain" for the first time about four days ago. I hadn't seen this phrase used anywhere else, and TUD did not have it listed either. My second submission was a phrase I have used hundreds of times in the past.
"Swamp sow"... I used swamp sow for the first time to describe my sister after she gave birth to her third child almost thirty five years ago.
The bad news...how smart do you have to be to get shit like "fuck buddy" or "retarded" published in anything?! Let's face it. Ghettoese and punkspeak ain't exactly used by Harvard grads or the people that design child proof safety caps on medicine bottles.
In fact, I've come to the conclusion that most people that submit entries to The Urban Dictionary sit around all day and try to make up a bunch of crap, assign some arbitrary meaning to it, and then submit it for approval.
Hmm, ya know? I don't think "punkspeak" and "ghettoese" have been defined yet as per T.U.D. policy. There ya go! Well, you got a problem? Face it! It's the closet to Edgar Allan Poe I'll ever get!

I think you may actually be a Closet Harvard Grad. Where else could you have learned to be such a Wordwizard(not in my sp ck), extraordinaire? The local Community College? I think not.
You may also be classified as a Wordmeister(not in my sp ck).
How do you submit these, thingamabobs(in sp ck), anyway?
Peace
I'm a blogger brain. I went and looked at the definition and all it lacked was my picture. Just saying.
Thank God I'm not a swamp sow. That's just plain disgusting. Bwahahahahahahaha.
Congratulations on being such a master with words.
Have a terrific day. :)
Wow, you're a gentleman and a scholar, congratulations! There are a couple of words/phrases I think I'll throw at Urban Dictionary to see it they stick, that is if I don't get blogger brain in the process.
I'll let you have NOMF free of charge.
Don E. Chute: See what I mean? You are lurking and waiting for your chance at fame. You secretly want to submit "ghettoese" and "punkspeak". Ah ha. I get it.
Sandee: It's hard to qualify as a swamp sow, and since I am the creator of that word I can set the standards by which a female becomes one. It ain't easy and it ain't pleasant.
Me-Me King: Give it a try. You too may become famous just like all of the other morons who sit around doing stupid shit like this.
Dr. Faustroll: Thanks, but it may blow up! Like a verbal i.e.d.
You're a funny guy. I don't know any swamp-sows personally, but this is the third time today I've passed by your blog waiting for you to post today's piece. I've either got blogger brain or my bum's asleep again. Damn I hate when that happens.
nonamedufus: Thanks. Coming from you the prince of pun, the king of caps, the sultan of syllables, I take that as a great compliment.
I dunno, Don, seems like the language is constantly evolving. You know, "swamp sow" one day, "skankiest of ghetto hoes" the next. I'm willing to go along as long as the terms can be adjectivized: "she was swamped sowed to the nines", "I blogger brained the crap outta that site", etc. (Right...not like that second example, but you get my drift) To me, the ability to look up the meaning of the word "adjective", and the ability to employ it, validate whatever terms anyone cares to throw at it. Adverb, even more so. If the proponent demonstrates that they have two brains cells to rub together, that's good enough for me.
I'll lay those two on the teens when they get home, just to see if they work or not. They can't use a normal word or term if their lives depended on it.
Patrick: Are you a sports fan? Worse yet-a sports announcer? They take nouns and verbs and constantly "adjectivize" them. Gets on my nerves.
Lin: Yeah great. Show your teens what kind of grown man's blog you read. Duh...
Haha! No I'm not, Don. Unless F1 racing counts as a sport (which I doubt). I can't say I approve of what sports announcers do to words though -- they have yet to prove to me that they know the root meanings of words, let alone their made-up adjective forms. In that sense, I can also say that I don't enjoy their blatherings. That doesn't happen in F1 though -- it's all "explosion" this and "mass carnage" that -- proper English.
Patrick: Face it..."mass carnage" has a much more manly sound than oh, I don't know..."2 balls!"
Well, congratulations. I think. Of course, if Harvard grads don't submit stuff to TUD, then that probably means most people will see your new words so, way to go, milk it for what it's worth and carry on!
Thank you Don. I did learn a new word today...
Oh, my god. "Swamp sow"? I had to read its definition again and again. Every time, half way there, a blink would make me loose what I learned.
Poe rhymes with 'ho.'
That's all I've got.
Nanny Goats In Panties: Thanks. When the day comes that I compete with a Harvard grad on an real intellectual level is the day The Urban Dictionary crumbles.
Mr. Stupid: Thank you for the backhanded compliment. I'll take those too.
moooooog35: ...and moooooog rhymes with orange. Over.
sorry Ghettoese is old babydoll. tha's like an isha word.
I couldn't agree more. The mere fact that a site such as UD exists is hilarious in and of itself.
Just for kicks I added my own definition several weeks ago. "Krapsody" is now offically part of the retardosphere.
