On the page for a word which can be a derogatory term for a homosexual (defs. 7 and 8), Google manages to place a jewellery ad featuring what I think is meant to be a lesbian kiss. Is Google under the spell of WeirdNet...?
Prolagus, you may know this (because you're from Italy, not because of any political affiliation)--is this word not related to the symbol for Fascism, the fasces (a bundle of sticks)?
Also another name for bassoon. German spelling "Fagott" and Italian "fagotto". From the French "fagot", meaning a bundle of sticks.
Did anyone notice that faggot stitch is apparently related to scarf? and they are also weirdnet twins...
I'm sure they could make room in the dictionary for that definition, skipvia. After all, it has so many other meanings already. ;->
You mean this isn't just another word for the bassoon?
Kewpid, are you referring to the image I posted way back when? Totally coincidence; honest. Here, have another.
Besides, I like pink triangles.
Oh hey, pink triangles! That's not even remotely suggestive…
I agree, u. I nominate... well, I don't really want to nominate this word page. Oh! I know: peeler.
John, I think adding WeirdNet definitions has enriched this site in ways too numerous to count. No kidding. The conversations it's spawned are awesome, and I've learned a lot (whether I wanted to or not).
Wait, I know what this is! As trivet's citation describes, it looks like this.
Wow, I'm as weird as WeirdNet.
It's decided. If we're doing a List of the Year award, we also need something for the Most Unexpected WeirdNet Definition.
See here.
Astonishing.
Wow! That's a good one! What the hell's a faggot stitch?
Perhaps the weirdest WeirdNet yet. I've never ever heard of this definition.
