    July 2025: This was initially a place to put memes that I use, but then I never updated this so now I’ll use it to put cool fancy new words that I learn and like, because 1) I look up the same words repeatedly because I never remember their definitions; 2) I want to improve my pitiful vocabulary; and 3) I like words (says she who has a pitiful vocabulary).

    Definition sources:

    Definitions written here will include both copied definitions and my own rewording.

    Undecided whether I should order these chronologically or alphabetically…

    Maybe: add idioms

    Memes

    These are not necessarily official memes that people know and use but also inside joke memes that I use among friends after I have subjected them to the memes’ respective origins.


    I am also a fan of the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows.
