Word For The Day, Tuesday December 16, 2014



In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".

doxing

-n
Doxing (from dox, abbreviation of documents),[1] alternatively spelled doxxing,[2][3] is the Internet-based practice of researching and broadcasting personally identifiable information about an individual.

[The term dox derives from the slang “dropping dox,” which according to writer Matt Honan was "an old-school revenge tactic that emerged from hacker culture in 1990s." ]

la ubicación [oo-bee-kahs-ee-OHN]

-n
location, position

La ubicación exacta de la casa es desconocida.
The exact location of the house isn’t known.

I am good with coriander, I use it in baking mostly though. the bacon sounds like a great addition, I have never used in guac.

Isn’t that the day after Christmas, when whistleblowers traditionally release confidential online info – Doxing Day ;?

Terrorists could not have done a better job than a water main break in disrupting the city.

I called xshub to let him know to take xsbaby the whole way into school as she has her last final today and doesn't need to chance being stuck waiting for a train. He scooped up xsteen to drop her at work for the same reason.

Good morning, everyone.
I lost my doxing
whilst I was boxing
with a huge Red Fox
in my stocking.

Two NY Times writers were doxing
Published Wilson's address: tried outfoxing
Opponents of Brown
But they got taken down
It's called "Dumb as a Bundle of Rocks-ing"

My daughter tried making chocolate chip cookies with rosemary. The flavor wasn’t bad, but the texture was all kinds of wrong.

I have recently seen a cookie that calls for rosemary, it was kind of a delicate butter cookie with a jelly filling. seemed a bit odd to me. coriander is ground fine and used with apple in a stollen recipe.

I saw on Twitter that a developer wants to close the interstate right in downtown DC so they can build on top of the road. Going right to the DoL.

You would need to either grind the roesmary into a powder or use an oil or something. Having needles in a cookie is not good. Trust me.

over the last few weeks many law students have experienced moments of total despair, minutes of inconsolable tears and hours of utter confusion

Doxing is the latest trend
I fear it will portend
a tragedy to unfold
when the crazies are bold
I cannot help but to contend.

What a load of drivel. Sounds like they had better flunk out of law school now, then to ruin some poor schmuck’s life by caving during a trial.

miserable little pukes. There was some blondie on Oreilly last night who is a conservative law student at Harvard and she was saying the Federalist Society there is actually pretty robust and that there is a strong conservative presence in the law school student body. she was saying that this sentiment was only being expressed by the minority groups. law students in general are loathsome, I couldn’t stand 99% of them when I was one, and I have ZERO tolerance for them now.

Seems to me if they were studying hard to get through law school they would have hardly noticed all this crap in Ferguson. Focus. They can’t seem to manage that. Flunk now, is my advice.

So, are you offering an Italian a crock pot doxed on your desk today? Or are you suffering an Italian’s crock pot doxed on your desk this morning until lunch?
