Meme!  
I'm back. I'm updating semi-regularly. So... a meme!

Because, really, it's THE INTERNETS. There can't not be memes. Or double negatives. Or icons of lamentable grammar.

Anyway, onward to the meme, kidnapped from [info]packbat...
  1. Go here.
  2. Generate some random words.
  3. Write fake dictionary definitions for them.
And so, with a small yet non-zero amount of further ado...

I was going to stop at 5, but then 'thave' came along. Oh well.

Y'know, I think Searle's Chinese Room argument is a theorot. That's kinda handy.

Were I creative enough/had I gotten enough sleep, I would be more than happy to do so. As this is, sadly, not the case, I shall settle for giggling uncontrollably at your definitions.

Amazing
I admire your dedication with the phonetic symbols and everything. A good Yould engine to play this game would probably have a large corpus of English prose with a bit of poisoning from other languages just to add spice. Keep up the good work and post other entries here (http://ygingras.net/b/2007/7/the-scrabble-cheat-sheet-project) if you have something good.
