Garbage! Do not waste your time! Not credible! Do not read! Try a real dictionary! Below zero rating!

Definitions for Israel & Israeled are antisemitic. Not funny as some reviewers have stated. Pathetic & juvenile definitions to cause more hatred.

Everything on here is racist, offensive, ignorant or just stupid. It's like reading the writing on the bathroom wall from a 50 year old living in their mom's basement. I feel dumber just having gone to the website.

As an antisocial 18 year old bisexual, it always peaks my interest when I hear someone use slang such as "slayyy" or "ayo" to where I actually want to look up what said phrase means. That's what the urban dictionary is supposed to be for, right? Well, if you're looking for legitimate definitons then, uhh, it may take you a while to find a definition that satisfies you. A dictionary that was originally meant as a source for finding the meaning of popular social media slang has turned into a horror fest of racism towards black people, asian people, hispanic people, indian people, etc., white men trying their hardest to make it seem like they're an oppressed minority, homo/transphobia and of course the good-ol bi pan and omnisexual erasure, making fun of disabled people, and (this one's probably the most abundant of all) the sexism. Search up "white girl" and I DARE you to count how many "definitions" are just people $#*!ing about "hurr durr starbucks and ugg boots hurr durr they're so basic" without getting bored halfway. Those definitions are not only cringeworthy to read, but also very hypocritical considering white boys are depicted to be like some oppressed group on there.

Honestly, if you want to figure out the meaning to certain slang, just pay close attention to the context in which it's normally used. I figured out "slay" was basically another way of calling a man or woman "cute" or "pretty" after seeing it used alot. Trust me, figuring out the meaning yourself is way more worth it than using the horror show of a website called Urban Dictionary.

I bought a personalized mug for a Christmas gift, the quality of the printing is very very bad. I am really disappointed and I will never buy again from them. I even wrote to the customer service that never answered me! A shame!

This is not a dictionary at all. The entire English language can be defined in 2 million entries. There is ALOT less slang words. Peckham claims to have 7 million definitions. But they're not definitions at all, just stuff people have uploaded, completely unverified, sometimes just made up by the writer for the purpose of being uploaded to this site. No law court in it's right mind would use this stuff as a reference. Also, it doesn't even have the most current slang or definitions. The pandemic has been a banner event for neologisms and Urban Dictionary doesn't even have them. Unfortunately, your kids will be routed here from Google if they type in a slang word. Peckham's site will come up first, second or third in the ten I typed in. It's extremely misogynistic. Also, the site is racist as well, a Jewish organization has asked Peckham to remove Auschwitz definitions, a aborigine woman offensive characterizations of aborigines, I have asked him to remove extremely offensive degrading, misogynistic sex acts done to women like angry hitler and dirty sanchez, and he has ignored everyone. Because of it's association with the alt right extremist groups who commit mass murders, you will find weird definitions for things like a page long definition of feminist, which claims that they want to kill men and usurp mens rights, which espouses their doctrine for anti feminism. Finally, when I tried to leave a comment about Peckham's site after one of his interviews with a blogger my comment was deleted, and I has polite and argued with facts. He or the blogger suppress any comments that don't suit them. In addition, he is planning to add the feature that people will be able to upload videos acting out their definitions and call it Urban Dictionary TV. Given that so much of his content is misogynistic, your children may be subjected to some pretty graphic sexual images with women who are not consenting. Do not go here or let your children go here.

This website is strange, but not exactly in a good way. I know most defintions are meant to be jokes, but what's the point? A website with crude sexual defintions I never wanted to hear, especially made - up words that sound like Glenn Quagmire's fantasy. It's not informative, and whenever I come across this site it's pretty annoying. Very harmless, though very annoying.

Only visit this site to get a good laugh, since it's not an actual dictionary. The website itself looks very 2000's and cheap.

The definition for BIPOC is
"BIPOC don't have to be nice to you when you're threatening their existence. Support and amplify BIPOC. "

So that's calm, mature, and not at all hysterical.

Right beneath it is the following "definition".

"FDT
$#*! Donald Trump
FDT he's the most ignorant racist person ever"

There was a time when Urban Dictionary was not only helpful, but a little funny, also.

It now reads like it's written by Rachael Maddow on crack

Useless piece of sh1te

Update:
Aside from the s3x cr@p
Getting your def published is a lottery. Some mods will accept. Some won't.

If it's up there (a very reasonable definition that didn't poke or mention any specific names, and HAD ALREADY BEEN APPROVED), the def can STILL be reported (yes, it's been "MODERATOR APPROVED", but it can still be removed? Not sure how that works)

Oh. And if your def gets removed. They won't email you. They won't tell you. They won't communicate with you. It'll just disappear. So you have to check if your def is still there. Monthly. Or weekly. And they won't reply to emails asking about the removal. It's "the internet of things" (website doesn't work, no reply to emails)

It's b0110cks.

Urban dicionary.com's website traffic stats have been going down, down, down over the past year. When you realise your submissions are declined (or that your existing definitions are removed), you close the window. Just a thought.

Orig review

If you're a moderator, and you know it... make a different decision from the other moderators.

It's a lottery. I mean. It's an "urban" dictionary/lottery

Don't take the website too seriously. It's an.'Urban'... thingy

And the site is ok... IF... you can actually get any of your reasonable definitions published IN THE FIRST PLACE. And there seems to be an awful lot of s##t that does get past the moderators. Whether or not you get your definition published, seems to depend an awful lot on which moderator checks your submission. I'm sure I would never claim that if you diss something they like (or support something they don't), that moderator will reject it. Your most powerful tool on this site is not your keyboard. Your definitions probably won't get published. Use your mouse clicks, vote on existing definitions. And look up the definition of 'urban dictionary editors'. I'm assuming there must be some moderators of UD, who are cheesed off with UD, and allowed those to get through.

Whether or not yours get published no doubt depends on who moderates it. If you post something..."honest", about a member of the opposite sex, then if the moderator has just been through a breakup with that opposite sex, yours might get through. If the moderator is a member of the opposite sex, maybe not. Such is life.

I've seen the same definition for the same word, posted by the same person, appear several times, on different dates.

Hardly bother posting content. Use the up/down vote buttons.
One thing about this site. It's useful for finding out what random internet slang is. It has a tendency for turning everything into s3x. So expect "table" to be turned into something to do with s3x. Or..."record player".

I published 2 definitions under the same login, I wanted to change this so that I had two logins with one definition each - there isn't a system to 'transfer' definitions, you have to unpublish from one login, and re-publish from the second login. I was... hesitant about doing this, because they (did after a while) answer my emails, and said they wouldn't be able to guarantee the same identical definition would be re-published from the second login. But it was.

So they couldn't guarantee that an identical definition from a different account would be published. Consistent moderators, huh? Also a small gripe, you can't change an email address associated with an account (UD say it's not really an account, it's a 'login')

Yeah the place is c**p.

This is the most idiotic website there ever was. It is very racist and has a constantly uses the n word and the f word. This is the most God dammed website ever. I would rather die than look at this website. Earth will go down to hell because of this website. Curse the creators and people who have edited this damming website. Not even every cuss word in the world would ever suit this website. If I could I would slaughter the person who created this website. I would sue this website for eternity if I could. I would waste my entire life to erase this website from the face of earth if it took that long. I will never stop cussing on this damming website. This piece of bull $#*! is not appropriate for 50 year olds and people in elementary school view this $#*!. I hope all the people who ever created this website have a harsh and painful death. I was speech less when my 12 year old friends showed this to me. The person who created this bull $#*! is worse than the worst person ever.

Urban Dictionary started out as a proposed reference for slang, regional vernacular and colloquialism.

It quickly digressed and devolved into a banal collection of adolescent portmanteau and flippant one liners mostly focused on explicit sexual description and racism. Somewhat analogous to 4-chan and 8-chan but limited to non-existent words which are mostly stream of consciousness portmanteau conjured by the imaginations of adolescents or individuals with a juvenile mindset.

Most of the entries do not constitute slang or regional forms of expression. They are simply words made up by adolescent minded individuals whose obvious intent is being offensive, snarky, cheeky or cute.

By all appearances, most Urban Dictionary contributors and peer reviewers know nothing of linguistics nor regional slang and colloquialism.
