Urban Dictionary Bug

A problem discovered in 2010, that one could exploit a bug on Urban Dictionary which allowed one to go into the source code and either up-vote or down-vote definitions hundreds of times instantly -- basically game Urban Dictionary. A few weeks after this was discovered, Urban Dictionary corrected the bug so that it could no longer be exploited. However, the definitions already affected remained with multiple fake up-votes or down-votes.
Did you see a random definition on Urban Dictionary that few people would look up yet it has 1500 up-votes? Do you see an author who has multiple definitions with thousands of up-votes on them all and a comparably tiny number of down-votes? Probably a result of them exploiting the Urban Dictionary Bug.

The real new year’s excitement is from this thing being updated and having a new urban dictionary definition so that bored people can be distracted for the amount of time it takes for the definition to load before they realize it’s some stupid unfunny “meta” joke that’s been done 99 times before or another generic “Omg you must be so bored to have searched/copy and pasted this!!!!”

Bored person: omg I distracted myself from boredom and the fact that I am not doing anything productive and the slow crawl of time for a few seconds by searching this.
