@roymccoy Isn't this the thread/topic that started life as 'Please remove the word jew'? At some point I think the title was changed and general theme expanded, either by the admins (most likely) or by the original poster.

@l-j I think, that because it started with a lower case letter 'e' (eBay) as is the convention for electronic devices and services, that a robot troller picked it up as a "valid" word, instead of the proper noun that it is. -- just a guess, now......

@betterlate1-0 And here I thought M-W was a dictionary!

@mapmakere certainly is but I copied and pasted while I thought of it..after pouty was refused.

nazi is not worthy of a proper noun

@betterlate1-0 even if it's derogatory, it's still a word, isn't it? You cant just get the dictionary to remove words because you're offended by them.

@mapmakere Merriam Webster is pouty

@betterlate1 It is both a proper noun and a common noun. E.g. it is used as a common noun when someone is called a "grammar nazi".
