Word of the Day's definitions

paper tiger

One who appears tough on the surface but is really a wimp.

He annoys me because constanly brags about being so tough, but at least he can back up his statements, unlike a paper tiger.

twins uncle

Bad grammar. Put the apostrophe in twins uncle to make it make sense.

Twins uncle has no meaning, but twin's uncle means the uncle of a twin.
