And the introductory prices are outrageously low. Like, five licenses for $19.99/month. Five. And it just gets better from there. Again, it’s the best deal on the internet.

Now for our Word for the Week, by Ambrose Bierce. In this segment, we hear from the Devil’s Lexicographer himself, as he delivers one of his caustic definitions. 

The Word for the Week is Slang, and here to read it is Ambrose Bierce himself:

SLANG, n. The grunt of the human hog (Pignoramus intolerabilis) with an audible memory. The speech of one who utters with his tongue what he thinks with his ear, and feels the pride of a creator in accomplishing the feat of a parrot. A means (under Providence) of setting up as a wit without a capital of sense.

Thank you Mr. Bierce.
