    Upvotes and downvotes don’t have the same meaning on UD as Reddit etc. And also I hope it’s obvious to you that words can have several different meanings.

    Anyway I am not here for debate, this is a slang term I am familiar with and use/am exposed to frequently in the exact way that I described it to you. Here is another citation that describes the slang term: https://genius.com/29947121

      Uh they kinda do. People upvote accurate definitions, and downvote bad ones.

      As for the number, I notice that common sayings will have a lot. And obscure or made up ones will not get much attention. The number of votes on that is very small.

        Okay goodness call me a liar, damn. I could have just ignored your request for knowledge or told you what I happen to know off the top of my head with no evidence, but I went out of my way to find you two citations. And because I am so fucking nice here is a third: https://www.definder.net/Shawty_got_tha_fatty

        Thank you for letting me know I will never miss any nourishing conversation by blocking you.
