A few volunteer editors read your definition and decided to not publish it. Don't take it personally!

When the people at Urban Dictionary hate you, despite your word perfectly fitting on the website.

Public School

Government funded humanist indoctrination. Turns children in to good little socialists, ready-made for the new world order.

The most important thing I learned in public school is that I'm homeschooling my friggin' kids.

Not Published

Every definition on Urban Dictionary was written by a user like you. About a thousand definitions are sent to Urban Dictionary every day, but only half enter the hallowed ranks beside ratchet, Harlem Shake, and Cleveland Steamer. People often email and ask, why didn’t my definition get published? Well, we’d like to know too.

The truth is, we don’t decide. Sometimes we’re just as puzzled. Some rejected definitions seem perfectly good to us. Sometimes we wouldn’t vote for a definition, but we can’t really say why. Urban Dictionary’s users get to edit the content, so they get to decide. However, since this is a frequent question, we thought we’d look into how users make the decision to publish or not publish a particular definition.

We wanted to understand what matters in a definition, what helps it get accepted. To do this, we started by asking users to just describe a list of eight random submissions. We gave people one line of text to describe the submission. For example, one of the words was “phil collins.”

Not Published
People described this definition as “Somewhat biased”, “opinionated”, or “NO! PHIL COLLINS IS THE SHIT”. We collected 69 responses for each word, grouped them together and tried to find the main idea in the description. We continued to group things together until we ended up with eight categories.

Medfield Public Highschool

A public highschool in the town Medfield, MA right outside Boston. Town is often called Deadfield for the lack of activitied and entertainment. School has very high MCAS scores and is known for its good schooling. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk seeing as there is nothing to do, ever. Most of the guys are LaxBros and most of the girls are preppy, bitchy soccer players.

Hey, I always toke in the morning before class, because the teachers at Medfield Public Highschool are boring as fuck!

Publix

A grocery store that is known for its high prices and over worked, brow beaten employees.

The only place in this free country where a 75 year old bagger with a severe limp is expected to walk a customer outside and unload their bags of groceries into their Lexus or Soccer mom van.
Where, if an irate, uncouth customer screams and yells loud enough, can get any item for free for no valid reason.

"I shopped at Publix yesterday, and saw a well-dressed woman belittle a 65 year old deli clerk in front of a manager. People are so rude"

"If you enjoy never having weekends off with your family, constantly being harrassed for not working fast enough, and enjoy being debased and exploited by obscene, cheap customers just trying to get something for free, then work for Publix"
