Thumbs down. First word I grabbed out of the cascade ("filibegs") had
three citations from Ulysses, and the definition: "Sorry, no definitions
found."
All due respect to Joyce, but if you can't define it, you shouldn't list
it.
And even more damning, it's a real word! See definition at
www.thefreedictionary.com.
