the c word

Welcome to the Dictionary, C-nty!

All right, Sandberg, you can go ahead and ban bossy, because the Oxford English Dictionary just gave society an even better word to reclaim. Among the list of the OED’s new words is fan-favorite cunty (adj.): despicable; highly unpleasant; extremely annoying. Also included are cunty’s cousins, cunted (adj.), cunting (adj.), and cuntish (adj.), so the proper derivative can always be employed. (While I prefer cunty as a loose synonym for HBIC, I appreciate the array of options.)

Other newly inducted words include bestie (n.) and dead white male (n.), which means all the words I need for my feminist manifesto are now defined by the dictionary.
