Everyone has to agree tho.
Don't be one of these dickheads that defines shit their own way then gets upset when nobody agrees with your dumbass. There's quite a few people like that here on Lemmy and I find them to be the single most annoying type of user on this site.
It's better to use words correctly, but in ways that call your understanding of the definition into question.
"I hacked into my sister's facebook when she left it open on her laptop."
"In an act of philanthropy I gave George the rest of my fries."
"Mr. Hands died for his passion, a modern day saint."
"Tiamat is a Bad Dragon."
Minor gripe - it's not right to say that everyone has to agree, but it is sensible to point out that one person has no real basis for having unique meanings for terms and then reacting poorly when others fail to use them.
Every word had an evolution or hard origin, and each stepping stone on those journeys had some first user. By whatever means, some of those new words or new tweaks on existing words caught on and spread.
And sometimes, despite generally widespread acceptance of a change or a new word, some folks will bitterly hold on to the old ways for years or decades until they just die wrong about it.
By whatever memes . . .
Yeah TRVE, making a point of intentionally being dumb usually means you're an insufferable cvnt
