A dictionary that surpasses the current 21st century dictionaries. Originated from the 16th century A.D., it was known as Toss-fourd (which is Gaelic for "ultimate knowledge"). Consequently, it evolved through time and have since grown from 1 word "shitmaster" to 162 million words. It's authors, now dead, coined the phrase "with Toss-fourd, men are fed"
"Wow, I never knew the Toxford dictionary was so reknowned, I thought you made that up T."
"Hey A, I think you really need the Toxford, I don't really understand what you are saying."

Get the Toxford mug.Similar to the phrase "D'oh!", pulling a "tuxford" generally means that you have done something totally moronic such as rebooting a live server with 50k odd users on at the same time instead of the testing server you THOUGHT you were rebooting.
What makes a "tuxford" different from a "D'oh!" is that you have to reboot the live server with a 60 second notice to save your work instead of a 30 minute notice, AND cancel the shutdown before it actually happens. If you accomplish a tuxford, expect constant and endless ridicule over your server administration skills, endless memes using your name amongst your user base, and including having your name used as an urbandictionary.com entry.
