kind of like vegans, and I may resemble #1 at times lol

I know she ain't the same but her popping out while I was thinking about my ex shoo fly me off just the same.
Recently I was invited to a party with a band my grown kids and my ex was at.
Ex comes over and asks me if I had danced with anyone yet.
Sitting there with my cane, I said yes. She got the message.
I've had enough of her crazy in the past.

My first exp. with changing definitions was with the word "Cute", back then in an old dictionary, it wasn't about pretty or attractive, it was about "So Ugly" one might be considered interesting. . . I was devastated at 7 years old!

Thanks!!!

+100 if I could! Awesome set of links! I will explore this more or, better yet, find a way to download and preserve it for future use. I couldn't spend a lot of time there right now.

For example one of the phrases of the 19th century translation of "The Iliad" is "Well greaved Acheans" (my spell checker is grumbling about greaved and Acheans right now). I understood Acheans to be Greeks due to context, but couldn't figure out greaved. As it turns out Acheans are a subset of the Greek alliance attacking Troy and greaves are most specifically leg armor or generally armor overall. Therefore the Acheans were part of the Greek army and were well armored. The name Acheans and the word greave both appear in this old dictionary as well as my old dictionary, but not in my modern ones, nor in my spell checker dictionary.

Edit add: It's a shame that so much is being lost over time - some deliberately.
