Shakespeare Insult Kit
Shakespeare Insult Kit Since 1996, the origin of this kit was listed as anonymous. It came to me on a piece of paper in the 90's with no attribution, and I thought it would make a cool web page. Though I searched for the origin, I could never find it.

The Online Plain Text English Dictionary
OPTED is a public domain English word list dictionary, based on the public domain portion of "The Project Gutenberg Etext of Webster's Unabridged Dictionary" which is in turn based on the 1913 US Webster's Unabridged Dictionary. (See Project Gutenburg) This version has been extensively stripped down and set out as one definition per line. All the Gutenburg EText tags and formatting have been removed by computer. Version 0.03 is a new processing of v0.47 of the websters dictionary and it has considerably fewer errors. The dictionary is set as a word list with definitions, using minimal HTML markup. The dictionary can be viewed (with patience) directly online as you would a normal printed dictionary, otherwise a user can download the pages and process them in some way on their own machine. OPTED v0.03 by Letter(size) Second computer generated version: OPTED v0.03 by Archive OPTED v0.03can also be downloaded as a large stuffit/binhex encoded archive. (7.1MB/ 19.1M unpacked)

"This is the result of an ongoing project to collect and distribute the most obscure and rare words in the English language. It also contains a few words which do not have equivalent words in English. At present, the dictionary contains approximately 2700 words, though it is constantly growing." by macopa May 14
As a word collector of sorts, I find this site exquisite. Definitely worth checking out if you are interested in rare or obscure words. by infiniti Nov 3
