Publication Period

Publication Period

The time on Urban Dictionary between when a post gets approved and it updated on the site.

After a word is approved, it takes some time for the site to update to include the word. In the 'in between period' which is known as the 'Publication Period' this is the point where it has been accepted, but when going to the link it says 'Sorry, we couldn't find: {word}'

"My post got approved, how long is the Publication Period?"
"My post just got approved and is in the Publication Period"

Public parts

Private parts belonging to your friend who will hook up with anyone.

Like public parks, but remain open at night time.

Grace: "Girls, I must admit that after the Kappa party I may have stayed over in Thad's room."
Brianna: "You got up on that manslut's public parts??"

public forum

I saw some other definitions about LD and policy, and they were old, so I made this so a newer debater can understand. I will assume you understand the rules and various jargon used obsessively throughout most of the debate community. Public forum, compared to other debate events, while not necessarily the best, should still be highly considered. Looking at other debate forms such at LD, policy, and congress, PF is the most fun. PF is like the "Goldilocks" event. LD is too boring (who would want to judge two roman-nosed high schoolers in suits talking about the values in life for and hour), policy requires too much time researching random and stupid arguments (penguins lead to nuclear war) or perfecting speaking speed, and congress is vague, lazy, difficult to become good at, and rounds are loud and you barely get to speak. Public forum also looks good on applications, teaches you to debate lay a lot better (which definitely helps you a lot more in later parts of your life), and is probably the most "easiest to learn, hardest to master" type of debate. Give it a try.

"I'll never quit public forum. Screw policy."
"Ugh...this congress round will never end."
"Who tf cares about principles and values in life?"

Public Restroom

A place where you only go if you truly have to. You will know when you are in one once you see foaming hand soap smeared over the mirror and yellowed linoleum floor tiles, see all sorts of nazi references engraved into the stalls, and what looks to be water damage on the dotted Tbar ceiling. The division will smell either like a dead body was flushed down the toilet or will reek of cheap air fresheners that have a hint of laundry detergent. You will feel as if you were being watched as you never know who will peek out from under the stalls.

*stops at convenience store*

Dimitri: What are we stopping for?

Randy: I really have to go.

Dimitri: Dude its a public restroom, you might not come back

Randy: I will go anyway...

Public

When someone says something is "Public" it means they think that thing is very respectable, interesting, and cool. It's a word used to praise or commend something.

Have you listened to the new Denzel Curry album? It's public as fuck.
