Default the word 'bingo'

I wasn't sure what section to put this is but I thought it would be fun to look up the various meanings of bingo at urbandictionary.com.

Check them out! http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=bingo

I never thought of doing this. There are quite a few different meanings of the word in that dictionary that I had never heard of. Thanks for sharing this one.

Default re the word bingo

I kind of thought that bingo had been an established game, and that people saying "Bingo!" when they had something sussed out, etc., stemmed from the game. You learn something new every day!

Bingo is a term for an Australian drug??? Well, that was one I really wasn't expecting to see on the list. Interesting though.

Who knows, maybe they were on the Australian drug when they came up with the game.

I thought I was the only one that has used the word Bingo when I , when I found an answer to something. I never realized that it was actually the definition for the word Bingo. Now I won't feel stupid saying it aloud anymore.
