Whoa... new definitions added!
Posted : 9 Dec, 2009 08:28 PM

I heard on the news a few weeks of some of the new definitions added to our key dictionaries. I'm amazed, just amazed! OR am I just so gracefully aged that I can't comprehend it all?



Check these out!



Sexting: (a portmanteau of sex and texting) is the act of sending sexually explicit messages or photos electronically, primarily between cell phones.

Note: My "jaw" dropped!!!!!!!!



Blamestorming: A method of collectively finding one to blame for a mistake no one is willing to confess to. Often occurs in the form of a meeting of colleagues at work, gathered to decide who is to blame for a screw up.



Gaydar: A homosexual person's ability to identify another person as homosexual by interpreting subtle signals conveyed by their appearance, interests, etc.



Grrrl: A young woman regarded as independent and strong or aggressive, especially in her attitude to men or in her sexuality.



Unfriend: To remove someone as a friend on a social networking site such as Facebook.



I'm in awe at most of these. Well... I'm still learning as our world continues to exist!
