✅
Write for a large audience. When defining a word, make sure to provide enough context for other people to understand what it means and how it’s typically used. Need a little help? Look to our Word of the Day for some examples.
Be creative. Some of the best definitions on Urban Dictionary find humorous ways to poke fun at authority, or put a clever twist on current events. Some of them are just straight up weird. We’re okay with that.
Have fun. We are not a traditional dictionary. This is a place where language has a little more space to be explored and constructed freely, in the moment.
🛑
Don’t post personal information. That includes obvious things like last names and addresses, but we will also remove definitions containing first names or user handles if they can be used to identify and target specific individuals for harassment.
Don’t be an asshole. We are okay with people defining offensive words. After all, people use offensive words in the real world and a resource for understanding what those words mean can be valuable. However, we are not—and never will be—okay with people using a definition to harass, discriminate, and/or directly incite violence against others.
If you notice anything on Urban Dictionary that you believe falls outside of these guidelines, please flag it for review.

wtf the fact that ppl write names on urban dictionary and make them names feel like a literal ruler of the universe is so bad I don't even know how they are allowed, probably narcissism at its worst I think
also they write pointless paragraph(s) containing 5,000 words just to prove that the person having the name is a superior being. what's wrong with you people?

A man, typically one in a Ford F-150, who drives to their 9-5 desk job where they brag about how much of a badass they are, afterwards they go home to their wife who doesn’t want to have sex with them due to their small penis
Why does John wear a cowboy hat and drive such a big truck that he doesn’t need?
Oh he’s an Urban Cowboy

1) When a group of 3 or more people stand in a line holding their hands out in front of them with a slight curve and yell, "Urban Barrel!" One or more people will then run under the groups hands pretending to surf in the imaginary wave. Sometimes the group may decide to collapse their arms imitating a close out wave.

*A random person searches for an online dictionary*
*Sees urban dictionary and clicks through it*
*Searchs for the word*
*Ended up having meaningless definition*
*sighs*
'The Urban Dictionary is useless.'
