50 Of The Funniest And Most Honest “Definitions” Of Everyday Words Explained In This Crowd-Sourced Online Dictionary
As a linguist, I gotta say, dictionaries are hella interesting, not just because of the obscure etymologies or weird words you can find in them, but because of the rare and unheard of meanings that ordinary everyday words can have.
But then the internet one-ups the lexical game and becomes home to collaborative dictionaries that deal with words you wouldn’t see in traditional dictionaries. No, I’m not referring to the Urban Dictionary, but that’s a treasure in and of itself too. I’m talking about the HipDict.
HipDict is a crowd-sourced dictionary that redefines regular, everyday words with meanings that make much more sense in reality. While most dictionaries define words in concept, HipDict focuses on the spirit and nails it spot-on.
We have already covered entries from this dictionary on several occasions, like on this one and on this one, but it’s growing, and so we present to you new and unique entries in this lexical compendium.
Scroll down, vote on your favorites, and why not share some of your definitions to otherwise very mundane words in the comment section below!

I'm shamelessly overly truthful. But that's okay. I wouldn't want to work with someone who prefers dishonesty and plays games.

2020 is actually a trilogy. Part 1 is “2020: Year of the Plague Rat” (2020 was, coincidentally, the Year of the Rat in China BTW!)- A new decade begins as usual, until a nasty disease begins ravaging the world, originating from China. Suddenly, “normal” things such as handshakes, buffets, and even leaving one’s home are considered unsafe and many governments ban them (or at least discourage them). Part 2 is “2021: 2020 Wins?” (“2021” sounds like “2020 won”)- A vaccine has been discovered for COVID-19, the disease that has ravaged the globe for the past year. Things are looking up, but COVID will not let the vaccines stop it that easily. New variants and constant misinformation all stand in the way of the world’s attempts to stop this nasty disease. And to make matters worse, the year started with a raid on the US Capitol and the subsequent banning of former US President Donald Trump from all social media.

Cont’d from previous comment because I hit the character limit. Part 3 is “2022: Fire in the Skies” (referring to wildfires, air raids, and the possibility of a nuclear war). Just as the world has finally managed to overcome COVID, a new threat is on the horizon. Russia has invaded Ukraine, causing an ongoing conflict that many fear will lead to WWIII and the end of the world. Russia also seems to be winning, as they have destroyed or taken over many Ukrainian cities. Can things get any worse?

Netflix definitely needs a filter to block: 1) Movies I've already seen and don't want to see again 2) Movies I started watching and decided were crap 3) Gratuitous gore 4) Incredible stupid $hit

Yes. Also seems to be a point for some (myself included) when you start using a foreign language more than your native tongue and you completely forget words in your own language before mastering the new one. You would feel stupid, if you could remember a word - any word- for that feeling.

Yeaaaaaaah, this year isn't turning out the way I wanted it to. And I don't even care about quarantine. I've had, like, five military planes fly overhead in the past hour and a half, and I'm not even in Ukraine or anything, I'm literally in the U.S. Midwest.

Yeah... I was at my friend's house staying for a few days and then I forgot to do the assignment from our teacher. My friend was like "No worries! I haven't started it either." And then I felt much better, because then I wouldn't be the only one. When we got back to school, we realized that 80% of the kids in my class haven't done it. We all got a detention :)

In Denmark a double "a" actually forms the letter å - which is last in our alphabet - so a computer would put you last in the list ;-)
