Dictionary.com Was The Real MVP Today With Shady Commentary On Current Events

See the original post here:

Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Once again, Dictionary.com is providing palm trees and sunglasses for the disturbing things going on in the world. First, their shade came when they responded to a story that resurfaced after three years. Back in 2015, USA Today covered  a Tennessee hardware store owner putting a “No Gays Allowed” sign outside his establishment. He put up his sign in response to the Supreme Court’s ruling that allowed same-sex marriage. His story resurfaced again this week when the Supreme Court ruled that businesses have a right to deny gay people because of religious beliefs. “No Gays Allowed” started trending on Twitter and Dictionary.com slyly responded by defining “homophobia.” Homophobia is defined as unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality. E.g. A “no gays allowed” sign may be construed as homophobia. https://t.co/ynk0jI6tJ1 https://t.co/9fKXYyMZHk — Dictionary.com (@Dictionarycom) June 7, 2018 Well played Dictionary.com.   And they didn’t stop there. They also covered Malcolm Jenkin ‘s silent protest where he presented facts about police brutality and prisons, yet the press still questioned him, instead of reading and listening. To listen can mean to give attention with the ear, but not always. It also means “to pay attention; heed.” https://t.co/to9kCi65iO https://t.co/Y6ysJRjjGU — Dictionary.com (@Dictionarycom) June 7, 2018 YOU’RE NOT LISTENING: Philadelphia Eagles Star, Malcom Jenkins, sends powerful message on criminal justice & extraordinary advocacy by NFL players for good. To make sure y’all do listen, I screen captured all his messages in this THREAD: pic.twitter.com/8zqzrdoCo3 — Scott Hechinger (@ScottHech) June 7, 2018 Dictionary.com even showed love for Prince’s birthday… Prince. A person possessing admirably fine and genial characteristics. pic.twitter.com/TeE5c92GMD — Dictionary.com (@Dictionarycom) June 7, 2018 And expressed their thoughts on kindergartners  singing songs about school lockdowns … Disconcerting means “disturbing to one's composure or self-possession; upsetting, discomfiting.” See also: Kindergartners singing nursery rhymes about school lockdowns. https://t.co/uP0zelZoIo https://t.co/O8A4kuMkzv — Dictionary.com (@Dictionarycom) June 7, 2018 And of course they couldn’t end the day without trolling Trump a little. Isn’t it Ironic? Getting ready to go to the G-7 in Canada to fight for our country on Trade (we have the worst trade deals ever made), then off to Singapore to meet with North Korea & the Nuclear Problem…But back home we still have the 13 Angry Democrats pushing the Witch Hunt! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 7, 2018 We really do think that ironic means “using words to convey a meaning that is the opposite of its literal meaning.” https://t.co/DUoJMdBCHn https://t.co/ZOLeiQGRys — Dictionary.com (@Dictionarycom) June 7, 2018 Dictionary.com for the win!

Ice Cube Thinks Drake’s Spot At The Top of The Game Is Coming to An End

Source: Barbershop: The Next Cut Neighborhood Tour Chicago Screening and Red Carpet Arrivals at Kerasotes Showplace Icon in Chicago Featuring: Ice Cube Where: Chicago, Illinois, United States When: 15 Mar 2016 Credit: C.M. Wiggins/WENN.com  Many people have been waiting on Drake to respond to Pusha T’s new classic diss record before declaring a winner, but Hip-Hop OG Ice Cube feels that Drake’s rap supremacy is coming to an end and not just because of the scathing diss record either. During an interview on SANACAST, Cube admitted that he felt Drake’s come to the end of his royal road. He said, “I think your reign just becomes over. I think that the audience has determined that more. You get three years of you can own the airwaves but then it’s time for somebody else. That’s just been the pattern. That was the pattern with me.” He’s not wrong. Aside from Jay-Z’s reign from the late 90’s to the mid 00’s, it’s hard to think of another rapper who had the game in a chokehold for longer than three years. And though Cube feels that Pusha might’ve gone too far in “The Story of Adidon,” he doesn’t think he himself violated anyone in his own classic diss record “No Vaseline.” “I went in but I didn’t go too far… I didn’t really speak on families and kids and mamas and daddies. I kept it personal but contained, and I didn’t start it, so…” Check out the interview below and let us know if you think Cube has a point.
