Ridiculous.
The reason this list is so valuable is because of the different
points of view that come in with answers, which all help one to
think better and consider things that had never occured to one before.
Although the person in the article who originally asked for the
definition is an idiot, the three dozen people who stepped up to
answer are almost better than the dictionary because they offered more than just a definition.
