Uxbridge English Dictionary

Postby mjb » August 19th, 2013, 10:25 am

Freely adapted from the game played in "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue."

The idea is to provide new definitions for existing English words to, perhaps, reflect our changing times.

For example:

Lymph - to walk with a lisp.

Countryside - to kill Piers Morgan (courtesy of Stephen Fry)

Animate - to be too fond of your pet.

Perversion - the cat's story.
