After reading some posts on recent threads, I thought these might be relevant.

I found them quite interesting. Plus someone asked what a TROLL was at some point.

all well and good showing all these definition sites but it's not the definition alone that makes for a good posting but the content and some here try to use the definition option alone to try to defeat an argument.

Thanks notb665 - they are quite interesting, and will inspire me to read more on the subject.

F*** knows what the point of kendor's contributiuon was supposed to be.

Thank you Softus, I was wondering if it was just me. I went over and over that post trying to think what he could mean.

then you obviously havn't been keeping up with the other posts! the comment was because others on here are literally taking the definition of words to argue a debate by accusing others myself included, that we don't know the meaning of certain words that we use and they pull out the google or wikipedia definition in order to rest their cases, knowing full well that the argument against theirs uses these words in context and not isolation.
