Well of course I googled it first :) and it doesnâ??t say the meaning of the word there. All I see is someone talking about it.Webster has no definition of the word so one would assume it has no meaning.
Merlin where did you find that definition from? I can't seem to find in Webster. sorry :)

old...Since you are new i will just tell you not to do it again ...

why do so few people understand google? it's like a foreign language. of course it is not a 'real' word, but so few are anymore. you yourself are using a word in its modified form: google. you cannot 'google' something, it's a noun.

if webster can't find it, try urbandictionary.com

fyrephlie, I agree somewhat. So lets move on to, who decided this was going to be the meaning of this word.Was it some 2 year old,a teen or and adult.Is this how words actually become words? I would think so. So hey lets get it in Webster: idea:
Now as for as the YO YO forum, yes i saw that but I had no ideal if a 10 year old wrote it or not. Anyone cant type on a forum :)
I found all the info I needed on this word from the few post in here already.
Thanks Guys NOT A WORD

Necroposting is akin to Islamikaze. Both may have originated on this very board. Look for them both to be in Funk and Wagnel in the near future. Coming soon to a book store in your area.

Urban Dictionary is a slang dictionary with your definitions. urban Dictionary: The Book hits the shelves with more than 2,000 of Urban Dictionary's funniest, smartest, crunkest defs.

I was talking Real Word. I do not think that dictionary is noted real as Webster :)
Anyhow thanks for all the input.

no the urban is just updated faster, its a more current and common lexicon because it is user updated in near real-time. just because something isn't in webster's dictionary doesn't make it a word....

[quote="Dictionary"]word - Pronunciation Key - (wûrd)
n.

1. A sound or a combination of sounds, or its representation in writing or printing, that symbolizes and communicates a meaning and may consist of a single morpheme or of a combination of morphemes.

kriznoramalimmocron could be a word... but try and find it in a dictionary.

Wareagle doesn't have a good grasp of the english language, so you have to explain things rather slowly. ;) Took me ten minutes to explain to him the difference between bits and bytes in Teamspeak. :lol:

Well, you said you looked it up on google, so it was right there infront of you. All you had to do was read. ;) Its all good tho. :D

Yeah, but you'd think that after ten minutes he could learn how to multiply or divide by 8 to get his actual speed. ;) I mean, its not like its really hard. Its basic math ffs.

Ok, War, please don't bring your Kali attitude here. We don't need it. If you're gonna post here make sure it's decent. If you post something and say you searched google and then someone comes and says they found it using google, then don't be surprised if they call you dumb.

Heh, tell that to everyone else that was there. You're not fooling anyone. ;) Then again, I wouldn't expect a chronic drunk to remember much. :P I clearly recall you complaining about why you weren't getting the full 512MB (bolded for emphasis). :P
