It's now in the proper dictionaries;

I use reputable dictionaries, the OED and Websters International. It is not in them.

maybe you need a newer dictionary.

My dictionaries are recent. I also checked the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Online Dictionary.

Is 2010 new enough for you?

Is yours the one where Noah Webster still spelled words "groop",
"tung" and "wimmin"?

That is a very asinine and insulting remark.

One was funny, the other less so.

One made sense, one didn't. Neither was funny.
