So you're saying that we are all slaves to dictionaries, that the dictionaries we compile as a civilisation are our masters. I think the problem here is that I am communicating only too clearly, and you don't like what I'm saying.

Nope. I'm saying that definitions are an important part of communication. If individuals are giving different, personal definitions to the words they are using to communicate with each other, the communications will break down into confusion.

I don't like what you're saying, because I thinks it's retarded... to be perfectly honest. But you define things any way you like. I've said what I have to say.
