A thesaurus is just a dictionary remixed
Dictionaries have definitions. I think most thesauruses are just lists of words
Urban dictionary only works when the people using the terms go there to define them and upvoted the definitions.
And young people nowadays don't do anything online if it isn't an app.
I keep seeing stupid, seemingly very person-specific definitions get the votes, stuff like "John: a really sexy, clever boy that all the girls want to be with"
The iPad baby generation is shockingly technically useless
