The author of Webster's dictionary committed suicide with the book he wrote.

At least he died on his own terms.

I’d like to thank Merriam-Webster for teaching me the meaning of the word β€œplethora”.

It really means a lot.

A panda walks into a restaurant and orders a sandwich. When he receives the check, he pulls out a gun, fires it several times, then walks out the door. If you don't get it look up "panda" in the dictionary ...

"Panda: A large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China; eats shoots and leaves."


Since today Merriam Webster even has the word dad joke:

"a wholesome joke of the type said to be told by fathers with a punchline that is often an obvious or predictable pun or play on words and usually judged to be endearingly corny or unfunny"

Shakespeare

I heard that the people of Webster's dictionary are teaming up with the Shakespeare theater company to introduce a new production. I hear its just going to be a play on words.
