Disunderstanding

When a person falsely believes that they've been slighted by something written or said by another person, when in fact it was actually something taken out of context.
Let's say you have a friend named Tom who happens to have an identical twin who's also named Tom but the difference being that this one is an unlikable hideous slob and one day your friend eavesdrops on you disrespecting his unkempt bro and he gets angry because he thinks you're talking about him, hence you have a disunderstanding on your hands.

misunderstood

this website is mis understood. not quite as much as the word "urban" dictionary. dispite popular belief urban is not the freakin "hood" were nothing but gangsters, crackheads, and hookers live. look out your window. do you see a buch of richies homes. if not you live in the hood. and even if you do see richies homes and cars outside your window you still aint got nothin stoppin you from talkin like you frum tha other side of the tracks. urban is slang. where you put deffinitions of slang wordsnot found otherwise in websters or another proper dictionary. and guess what you buch of tight asses. racism exists in the hood. so unless they are getting on here saying stuff like i am kkk and ima black panther then quit gettin your feelings hurt. so what somebodee says nigga, or peckerwood, or taco bender, or jap. are they sayin that shit to you or your homie die-rectkly?
me i am misunderstood if this deffinition gets erased. and if it does the people who did it aint got no biznass on this site.
