The strange experience of finding your relatively uncommon name in the Urban Dictionary with a very specific definition that seems to relate to your life. A modern-day horoscope of sorts, finding your name on Urban Dictionary and thinking "haha yeah that's me," then considering if the entry could have actually been made for you. A form of cognitive bias in the digital age... or is it?
Alano: Hey, look at this entry in the Urban Dictionary. I wonder if it's actually about me!
Friend: No way, there are probably tons of other Alanos. You're just getting hit by The Urban Name Effect.
Alano: I can't believe my name's also used as a euphemism for Alcoholics Anonymous, damn it.

Get the The Urban Name Effect mug.Once upon a time a place where squares like me could catch up on lingo without having to look stupid by asking everyone what they were talking about. Now a place where people compete to display the most purile garbage they can while attempting to keep it legitimate-seeming.
Me 2010: Ah, I wonder why "Wally" means idiot in Cockney. I'll look it up on Urban Dictionary.
Shar-nay 2023: Hey, I thought of a word for when you wipe your ass and accidentally poke some poo inside your pussy! I'll post it on Urban Dictionary as a service to society.

Get the Urban Dictionary mug.The biggest pile of pish ever. These sets of words are used commonly as derogatory terms. Urban meaning: rundown and dictionary meaning: A book which holds the definition of over 100 words.
Urban dictionary = rundown book wich holds the definition of over 100 words. The website itself is only used once every five days by the average person according to my world wide research on people with technology. on that basis It's pish. Fleeto.

"Have you heard of that urban dictionary?" "Oh no don't remind me of that pish!" Fleeto. 2013-14 (I'll probably be dead when you read this)
