I would suggest most people would disagree with your primary definition which seems to have been taken from Urban Dictionary; your argument is rather specious.

- will_brown 14y agoI did not say it was my primary definition, I simply said when I hear the word spoken (I did not say when I use it), more often than not, it is being in a non-sexual context. My primary definition would be that of any other human, but that is the point the shirt was not created by a human it could have picked the word based on another definition, such as Urban Dictionary like you mention. >your argument is rather specious. What arguement? I asked a question in context of the algoritm picking the word/phrase. For those offended, would it matter the intent/definition of the word? I did not make an arguement on behalf of any position. As far as Urban dictionary, I do not think you are likely to find the word "deballatio" in the urban dictionary. My examples aside (which again are real life examples how I have heard it used, not how I have used it), I defined rape in a non-sexual context as a "deballtio", which admittedly is not a real definition and some could argue "debellatio" is as offensive if not more so than rape.
- trhtrsh 14y agoYou seriously quoted a word three times, spelling it differently each time?
- will_brown 14y ago+1 I commented from my blackberry (fat fingers). Guess I got lucky and landed it the 3rd time: "debellatio".
