Whistleblower claims that Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner is flawed, Jacob Zuma to contest elections, Champions League gets alleged terror threats, Using Minecraft to teach coding and robotics, and Scrabble makes historic change to game.
I get that board games have to roll with the times to stay relevant but some of the new additions to the Scrabble dictionary are just, like, really eww.
We all know that as we, the human society, evolve, so does our language. In this case, though, it seems more like we are devolving… The new words added to the official scrabble dictionary are deeply saddening…
And now I don’t want to live on this planet anymore. Around 3,000 words have been added this year in the “most comprehensive Scrabble wordlist ever produced,” which I would be more upset about if most of my Scrabble games didn’t end in tears and fire. Also included: ‘innit,’ ‘thang,’ ‘fansite,’ and ‘Facebook.’
