Someone who uses words like, “unhonorable”, which is NOT actually a word at all. (The correct word is dishonorable).
People who use these words, especially those who go as far as using them in the submission of a definition on a word-centric site (like Urban Dictionary) evidently have zero culture (or intelligence) but they think they do and want others to think so too.
Person 1: hey look at this definition submission on Urban Dictionary for ‘culture vulture’, the guy who wrote it used the word ‘unhonorable’ in his explanation!
Person 2: what an idiot, now THAT is a culture vulture!
Person 1: ha ha! So true! It’s dishonorable to Urban Dictionary to offer that definition. Doesn’t anyone read books anymore?!
