Urban Dictionary journalism

he act of using Urban Dictionary for fact checking the definition of words that were used before the existence of Urban Dictionary.
According to Urban Dictionary journalism, Kavanaugh is obviously lying about the definition of boof, which he and his friends used in the early 1980s, because I read the definition on a website that was created in 1999.

World Journalism Preparatory School 

A school that runs from grades 6-12.

A sad excuse for a school. Run by a stumpy, Jewish women who has no regard for what really happens inside the classroom. Mostly Greek teachers that boast their gold crosses and pronounce students name with emphases on the ''rrrrrr' or '' ssss''.

That aside, another flaw would include the nauseating e-portfolio system we are forced to use. There is no point and I hear now that report cards will no longer be in use.

Uniforms include vulgar khaki's and pasty white polos. They are un-flattering to even the most beautiful of all genders. Parents, this school teaches nothing...your kids education is at risk!
Man, she's an idiot...and look at her clothes!

Yeah, she goes to that World Journalism Preparatory School...

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
