Words I Googled

Here is a list of words that I've come across in books, traditional media, or conversations that I didn't know the explicit meaning of. Some of these can be discerned by context and will show my best guess at the time then the actual meaning once looked up. If there exists an online link for where I found the word I will include that as well. After the first year I will archive the years in their own files. For brevity I will choose the shortest definitions.
