I procraturbated while reading this column.

"Monsterbate" never made it into Webster's, either, sadly.

This is modern day america. Pretty conservative. I honestly doubt if we'll see any of those words in the dictionary in our lifetimes.

Urban Dictionary has 20 entries for it dating back to 2003. That'll have to do I expect.

Actually, getting it published in this column is a way to get a word listed in the dictionary. It's called citational evidence and is one of the factors of including words in a dictionary (worked for a dic. once). Wait a few years and "Santorum" will make it into some major "adult-level" dictionary. Probably after he runs for president and that word is what squashes him in his tracks. All you can do now is collect evidence and send it to some underpaid publishing employee. If you don't procrasturbate it may make it into the lexicon in 10 years. Good luck!

Please wait...
