Soapboxer

Morons who use Urbandictionary.com as a place to spew their backwards ideas (I.E, a soapbox) and defend the little dignity in a definition with a long rant, instead of using it as an actual dictionary. Soapboxers generally appear posting their rant in a definition in response to a previous entry (usually in response to a definition making fun of a country, etc.)

Example of a word with 2 definitions, one from some guy making fun a country, the other coming from a soapboxer.
