Why am I homeless? Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question. They called it The Prayer, its answer was law Mommy come back 'cause the water's all gone

I don't know but f13 is going to be the only hit for it on google pretty soon so you should make something up, don't want to disappoint the intarweb. Mederactosory NOUN: 1. A vague feeling of unease or discomfort with the state of MMOs. Usage: "Jewels exist here and there in a morass of mederactosory." hal dreamt it up, I'm guessing he meant mediocrity. I think it's creepy that a search of f13 for "mederactosory" doesn't find the actual post that breathed life into it, as though the universe is trying to deny its birth...

Google can take a few days (or more) before it recrawls the site.

A nation consists of its laws. A nation does not consist of its situation at a given time. If an individual's morals are situational, then that individual is without morals. If a nation's laws are situational, that nation has no laws, and soon isn't a nation. -William Gibson

Yes, trepidation is a word. Trepidatious is not a word. I so went through this at university!

Well, you were wrong then, too.
It a) is a noise that can be made orally, b) is correctly derived via morphological inflection from a latin stem, c) is in the dictionary, and d) is in common use, and e) is routinely understood to mean what it means.
I require a definition of 'a word' that it fails to meet, other than 'I say so'.

I don't know. It's not in my Oxford. It's not in my Websters. It seems to be in dictionary.com. I can't find it anywhere else. I don't mind if you say it, though, even if it's not a word. The worst case scenario = I'll giggle.

Well, every time you laugh an angel gets its wings, so I'll use it without trepidation and fie on the spellchecker. Also, back on topic, logophilia isn't in there.

The spell checker is semi-broken at the moment (a side-effect of the move to our new server) which is why certain words are being flagged as incorrect which shouldn't be.
