random

Something or a group of things that follow no criteria or pattern. A word often misused by morons who don't know very many other words.

Correct: The decay of a radioactive isotope is random.
This is correct because nobody can predict exactly when the atom will decay. It actually doesn't follow a pattern.

Incorrect: Lol! Here r sum randome people I just met.
This is incorrect because the people have been chosen by a number of criteria: they are people that happen to be closeby and people who are willing to talk to you.

Incorrect: LoL here R sum randome words that I am thinking of.
The words are not random because you have specifically chosen them on the criteria that they are "suprirsing" or "unusual".

random

1) adj. Having no specific pattern, cause, or objective. Often used in statistics.

2) The latest in a long line of buzzwords that teenagers use to replace meaningful conversation. Could be used as the focal point of the next general election campaign, eg 'We pledge to take forceful action against the word random, and against those that promote or condone its misuse, for example 14 year-olds. A special street task force will be created and empowered to clamp down on this blight sweeping our nation, using extreme force and/or death to eliminate offenders.'

- Take a random number and multiply it by itself.
- We spoke to twenty random passers-by about this subject.

Idiot1: Haha hahaha!
Person: Die you fuckers *opens fire*
