promiscuous
on: December 31, 2006, 05:01:00 PM
can you believe that according to time the number one definition search on google was for the word promiscuous?  I find it so pathetic that there are so many people that don't know even slightly advanced vocabulary.  I mean.  first of all, I think everyone should have known that word in the first place and second of all figured it out based on the context of Nelly Furtado's song 'promiscuous Girl' I mean seriously people.

Anyway, I feel that this is just furthur proof that the world is full of idiots

Me likes that song alot  ;D

My sister actually told me she looked up that word after hearing that song, so you appear to be rather correct.

Nelly did a funny career move with her new album, she went from 'like a bird' to 'like a slut'.

I'm all for it  :P

According to my dictionary, "promiscuous" is another word for "confused"

Now I'm really confused  :D

I favor a promiscuous use of the word 'promiscuous'.

I suspect the searches have been generated by people looking for something other than word definitions. Randomly.

I honestly think it was the song.  If anyone was looking for some promiscuous images on the net.  The person won't be using that word. Something like "girl on girl" or "cum shots" etc. would more likely be used. wouldn't they?
