I'm a piece-of-shit "editor" who clicks Dont Publish 

I'm a typical "editor" of Urban dictionary. Weeks ago, I added a word that is now quite poular. So to keep the word popular and my ego fresh, I became an editor and click on nothing but the DONT PUBLISH BUTTON. I'm sooo awesome.
I'm a piece-of-shit "editor" who clicks Dont Publish for many reasons:

1. Because I'm a little kid who thinks it's funny.

2. My word got published, but I'm afraid there might be a cooler one coming up.

3. I have no life.

Don't publish this definition 

When you don't want somebody to publish a complete garbage definition (kinda like this one) into the urban dictionary.
Me: Don't publish this definition please.
Some other guy: Ok, I'll publish this right away lolololololololololol.

Don't publish this

'Don't publish this' is a method of submitting definitions on Urban Dictionary that is just as likely to get your definition published as writing definitions that are thoughtful and inventive. By no means should this definition be published.
Don't publish this. Don't you fucking dare!

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.
