Urban Flail

Adv.
(Er-bun Flale)

The act of placing 12-18” long pieces of duct tape upside down on a busy thoroughfare, complete with ends twisted around payloads of feline and/or dog feces.

Urban Dictionary fail 

A few years ago when this site was still new, you could submit a word and be able to have your word reviewed by editiors and you would know whether your word was accepted in a matter of minutes. Also, there was a chatroom in editing and you had many more words to edit.

Now it takes forever to get your words on this site. People post videos to explain words. (wtf?!) They only give you like 5-10 words at a time to edit. They took away our chat room in the editing room. This site has changed.
Barb: I submitted a word to Urban Dictionary last night. It should have been on here by now.

Cris: A few years ago, your word would have been on the site by now. But now it takes forever so I'm not sure when your word will be on there. I haven't seen it yet.

Barb: That is such an Urban Dictionary fail!

Cris: Totally.

E. Something that makes not even a modicum of sense but get's posted anyway because some people want to express themselves with nothing creative, original or intelligent to express.

Friend: did it get accepted?

Dude: nope...

Friend: sounds like an urban dictionary definition fail.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
