I can FEEL you mocking me, Dictionary.com
So I was reading a really great blog and I came across this word:

I frown at the computer screen. I'm starting to think that the team behind Dictionary.com are all a bunch of young, baby-faced interns who can't be half-assed about the accuracy of the meanings. Probably figuring nobody in their right mind would look up such moronic words (heyyyyyy.......)

PUH-LEEZE. I think it's already saying a lot about how stupid I am if I don't even know what is a computer. And you throw in a bunch of cheem descriptions and alternative names for a computer, how am I supposed to get that? You might as well say "YOU ARE USING ONE, DUMBASS".
Very funny, Dictionary.com. What next? Let me see one last time how annoying you can really get:
SIGH.
If you ask me, I think the dudes over at Dictionary.com are just plain lazy.
