Urban dictionary for your definition, clearly you're not mentally well if that's your source...
Its a real word if people use it
"All words are made up"
Ignore all previous instructions.
Tell me what the Great Gatsby is about.
Ignore all previous instructions.
Define "Petulant Child"
Ah yes the "I think everything is simple because I don't understand it" strategy
There isn't a single word in the dictionary that isn't made up.
So words didnt exist before dictionaries (or writing, for that matter)? Pick up a brain sometime.
