[udrwdgiy] Uncensored Urbandictionary

I have seen reasonable looking entries for Urban Dictionary rejected by editors.  I suspect the reason is the site tries to be descriptive, not prescriptive, allowing only terms that it believes are in common use.

This will not do.  According to the Whorf-Sapir hypothesis, in order to expand our thought (a worthy goal), we need to expand our vocabulary.
