  • vanishedone See also, not only WeirdNet's very own tag, but also The WeirdNet Paradox and WeirdNot. Mar 21, 2009

  • reesetee For Wordieternity: see dung.

    Yes, that's what I said. Jan 27, 2009

  • yarb Who writes the Weirdnet definitions? Somewhere out there, there is an unknown comedy genius. Apr 4, 2008

  • reesetee I've begun doing that too. Glad you're feeling better. ;-) Dec 10, 2007

  • john It's good to be aware that, if WordNet's definition looks off, you can see the full results for any word on their site. I've been doing this, and lately I'm thinking it's not me, it's them :-)

  • arby Won't someone think of the children spawn??!?!?!?! Nov 28, 2007

  • chained_bear John, I posted a comment to this effect on the... some other page. (Faggot? Peeler?) I think the WeirdNet situation has enriched Wordie. I hope you do not decide to make it NormalNet. Think of the conversations it's spawned!

    Or even just think of the word spawn! Nov 28, 2007

  • arby It does have to live up to its name, after all - not being called NormalNet (or AccurateNet, for that matter). Nov 28, 2007

  • reesetee I'm thinking that way too: added value. WeirdNet has become a sort of Wordie sideshow. It would almost be a shame if it were to straighten itself out and behave. :-) Nov 28, 2007

  • vanishedone By now, it's surely a feature... Maybe you're adding value by introducing us to definitions we'd otherwise overlook. Maybe. Nov 28, 2007

  • mollusque There's the problem, John: you're getting defninitions mixed in with the definitions. Nov 28, 2007

  • bilby I spent a while looking for WeirdNet and came up with nothing meaningful. Umm, may I have my while back? But at least I now know the pelmet from whence the kooknyness descends. Relieved! Nov 28, 2007

  • uselessness I secretly wondered if this might be the case, but dared not question thee. Nov 28, 2007

  • john Ok, time for me to fess up. There's a very slight chance that my programming has something to do with weirdnet's weirdness. I'm making a single call to the WordNet database, and getting back all the defninitions; some post-processing then happens to select the likely most-common definition. The parameters I use to determine that come straight from WordNet, but there may well be a bug (or a feature!) in my code that's selecting these oddball definitions. Nov 28, 2007

  • reesetee Those wacky definitions.... Nov 15, 2007
