Merriam-Webster–yes, the company that produces the dictionary–had some words with a Slate editor yesterday. Gabriel Roth tweeted:

I feel like @MerriamWebster is turning into the “chill” parent who lets your friends come over and get high https://t.co/dM4HT2Brt2

It’s great at first, it’s nice to have friends and a place to get high, but something about it starts to feel wrong

Mirriam-Webster’s response?

@gabrielroth No one cares how you feel.
