Please be careful when defining definition. I believe the result may be similar to the time when Al Gore Googled Google, and several of the Interweb Tubes imploded.

Though my posts may appear psychotropic
I have researched to depths microscopic
Though I'm beaten by facts
And such accurate acts
Oh my Lord! Have I conquered Off Topic!
