Synopsis

Urbandictionary.com-bearing the slogan "Define Your World"-serves more than 1.5 million visitors each month. Now the best of this immensely popular and irreverent Web site is available in Urban Dictionary. From shazbot, an expression used when something makes you mad ("Shazbot, I just locked my keys in the car,") to crunk, for crazy drunk ("We about to get crunk tonight,") Urban Dictionary covers the language that encompasses the trials and tribulations that anyone under 30 encounters-and leaves everyone over 30 scratching their heads but wanting to know more. Among urbandictionary.com's lively lexicon are: business provocative - Professional or semi-professional attire used to provoke sexual attention in the workplace. compunicate - To chat with someone in the same room via an instant messenging service instead of speaking to them out loud, in person. dandruff - A person who "flakes out" and ditches their friends, usually for an insufficient reason. deck - Hipster lingo for "cool." dime - A very attractive person; a perfect ten. hulk out - To become enraged. wingman - A guy who takes one for the team by hooking up with a hot girl's ugly friend so his own friend can hook up with the hot girl. Perfect for those who want to pick up some new slang and those who want to translate it, Urban Dictionary is a gritty and witty look at our ever-changing language.
