You never forget your first

[cyrano]

Last night I got an automated response from *THE* Urban Dictionary, saying that my first submission was going to be sent to the editors. (They have editors? Seriously?) Anyway. I wanted to share it with y'all, especially since I'm considering becoming a more regular contributor. I've tried to retain the hallmarks of UD's better contributors, including overly specific terms that nobody would ever use, providing example phrases that in no way illustrate the meaning of the phrase, and using the database as an editorial comment on somebody you know rather than as a way to illuminate common idiom.

Submission under review

Your entry is under review by editors.
Bobbie Wickham
Something of a wild girl, red headed in spirit if not in the flesh. Not opposed to a stunt of hilarity, and always in high spirits. What that poet fellow might have referred to as.... how's it go again? Tumpty tum-tum de tumpty tum in the Something or Other of Life's Great Fire.
Good viewing from a distance, but it is advised not to stand too close.

That Roberta is a real Bobbie Wickham, if you know what I mean.

I reserve the right to laugh until milk comes out of my nose when they make you one of the editors.

Oh hells no. I'm far too elitist for them to consider putting me in a position of power. I think they like me far better as an Edwardian gadfly who builds a small cult following with his childish antics.
