Generally, a definition that describes an offensive or violent term is okay, but a definition that endorses or promotes an offensive or violent term is not okay. We updated our public content guidelines, and detailed content guidelines, to clarify what’s okay on Urban Dictionary. Over time, this system had become dominated by a loud minority who published abusive definitions and didn’t publish the good stuff. We appreciate our volunteer moderators’ work over the years. Under the old system, a definition was published when a majority of volunteer moderators decided it was worth publishing. Here’s what we’ve changed, and what we haven’t changed, so far.ĭefinitions are no longer moderated by volunteers. We knew that sustaining the unique spirit of Urban Dictionary would require big changes. Last year we blogged about Urban Dictionary’s focus on content moderation.

Update on Content Moderation March 16, 2021 Let's take action and protect ourselves and each other by wearing high-quality, well-fitting masks. Let's not wait for political leaders to do the right thing. This means wearing high-quality, well-fitting masks whenever we are in public. Therefore, it is important for us to do our part in preventing the spread of the virus. The spread of covid-19 can impact the overall health of our community. However, the reality is that the virus affects us all, whether we are online or offline. This is unacceptable.Īs an online-only web site, it may seem like the issue of covid-19 doesn't directly affect us. Masking has been shown to be effective in preventing the spread of covid-19, yet many political leaders continue to ignore the evidence and put people’s well-being at risk. If a person were to put up with it long enough it would end in a grand catharsis, but most of the time the relationship ends before The Idiot Kick.As a member of the Urban Dictionary team, I am incredibly frustrated and angry at the failure of political leaders to recommend masking to protect the immunocompromised and prevent the spread of long covid.

The Idiot Kick grows in a person's mind like a cancer, and can/will consume every part of them until they do something they regret. If a relationship can survive the Idiot Kick it will most likely survive past marriage.

The effect of The Idiot Kick is always the demise of a perfectly good, functioning relationship which will cause a person to regret ever doing that but it will always be too late. Although mainly evident in guys, The Idiot Kick does happen to women. Any time you see the exit sign you'll want more than anything to just bolt like a convict escaping jail. The Idiot Kick as it stands is the time in a relationship when you begin feeling trapped subconscious or up front-It usually is subconscious and the point in a relationship where any small action your significant other does which is cute or you can put up with ends up driving you off the wall, it will haunt your every thought, and maybe your dreams. The term first coined by Kevin Smith ( Silent Bob) in Chasing Amy refers to what you'd be to actually leave someone at this point. The Idiot Kick is a phase in a relationship that happens three to six months in.
