Put on your glasses and perfect that charmingly awkward grin, because “adorkable” is officially in the dictionary — along with “meme,” “vape” and “twerking.” Anything can be a word now, you guys!

The BBC reports that the Collins English Dictionary has added 50,000 words to its next print edition — which include “selfie, “onesie” and “photobomb,” as well. “Adorkable” was added at the behest of Twitter users, who voted for its inclusion. Its definition? “Socially inept or unfashionable in a charming or endearing way.” Awwwwwww!

Somewhere, Zooey Deschanel is snort-laughing with glee.

Other newly minted “real words” include:

al desko – (a meal, esp lunch) at one’s desk at one’s place of work

Bitcoin – a system of open source peer-to-peer software for the creation and exchange of (payment in) a certain type of cryptocurrency.

kawaii – a Japanese artistic and cultural style that emphasizes the quality of cuteness, using bright colours and characters with a childlike appearance

meme – an idea or element of social behaviour passed on through generations in a culture, esp by imitation

photobomb – to intrude into the background of a photograph without the subject’s knowledge

preload – to consume alcoholic drinks at home before going to a social gathering

textonym – one of two or more words that can be generated by pressing the same key combinations on a mobile phone: ‘kiss’ and ‘lips’ are textonyms

twerking – a provocative dance performed by moving the hips rapidly back and forth while standing with the feet apart and raising and ...

Hey, fellow young single ladies: Did you guys know that just because you have Tinder on your phones and a spring in your step you’re completely unfit to serve on a jury or vote? Neither did I. Must have been too busy swiping left to get the memo.

The gleefully incendiary Fox News was the source of this totally novel information — specifically, a female co-host of “The Five,” Kimberly Guilfoyle. During the course of a conversation about how women’s rights will factor into the 2014 U.S. Midterm election, Guilfoyle spoke about young, unmarried women’s predilection for voting Democratic and seemed less than optimistic about the outcome.

“When you’re young like that, you think — same reason why young women on juries are not a good idea, they don’t get it,” the Fox reporter said. “They’re not in that same life experience of paying the bills, doing the mortgage, kids, community, crime, education, healthcare. They’re like healthy and hot and running around without a care in the world.”

Hmm, I wasn’t aware that being not-old and single meant that I didn’t have to pay bills or worry about my health. Someone call my landlord and tell him he’s cut off! Forget that gyno visit — I’m not seeing the lady doctor until I’m locked down and married! Carefree days for everyone! I know not the cold and icy hand of inevitable death!

Guilfoyle went on to amend her statement about women serving on juries, however, saying, ...

Some may wait for Merriam-Webster and Oxford to introduce new words into the lexicon. We over here at MTV News, however, are happy enough to adopt new terms whenever Gwen Stefani deems them acceptable. At least in the case of “artpop,” which she recently used as an adjective.

Lady Gaga tweeted a Vine of Stefani during a recent appearance on HSN. The No Doubt frontwoman was there to support her new collection of “POP ELECTRIC” fragrances, and she described the perfumes’ shiny packaging as “artpop,” which is both the title and concept of Mother Monster’s 2013 record.

Well, if Gwen co-signs, it must be so. She did cause us all to wear fashion braces back in the day, so I do not doubt her powers of cultural persuasion.

Get on this, Oxford.

Your favorite ’90s Halloween flick, “Hocus Pocus,” is getting a hypothetical reboot — via Miley Cyrus. The “Wrecking Ball” singer has gone ahead and dreamt up a new cast for the flick with a little help from her fwends.

Cyrus shared the below snap to Instagram this week, switching out the faces of The Sanderson sisters with her own mug (as Winifred), Wayne Coyne (as Sarah) and her assistant, Cheyne Thomas (as Mary).

We’re not exactly sure what a Miley-fied “Hocus Pocus” would look like, but we’d definitely be down to hear Miley and Wayne cover Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’ “I Put A Spell On You,” like Bette Midler does in the flick.

Get on that, dudes. Your Beatles remake could be just the beginning. We’ll just be over here watching this “Hocus Pocus” supercut while you make that manifest…

If we had to pick an official scapegoat for 2014 and all of its many mundane annoyances, we would undoubtedly choose Mercury in Retrograde. Didn’t get into the college of your choice? Blame MIR. Didn’t get a date to prom? Damn that MIR. Tripped and fell in a kiddie pool full of Jell-O? Uhh, we don’t want to know, but it’s probably partly MIR’s fault.

Oh, and guess what — we’re currently smack in the middle of another MIR suck-fest, one that doesn’t end until October 25. Cue a giant scream to the heavens right about here.

So what is this mysterious planetary phenom that seems to be messing up our lives seemingly every single month? Well, we hit up our trusty resident astrologer Licorice Root and asked her to break it down for us.

Read on and remember: Saturday is just mere days away — and then we’re done with this mess until 2015.

What exactly is Mercury in Retrograde? How often does it happen?

Quickmeme

Three, sometimes four, times per year Mercury, from our perspective here on Earth, appears to move backward through the Zodiac. This is just an optical illusion! Mercury is not really moving backward. But, the planet does retrace the movement it’s made through the Zodiac during this time.

Is there anything I should avoid doing during this time?

The big No-Nos we hear during Mercury Retrograde are: 1). Don’t sign contracts 2). Don’t buy electronics. Mercury rules communication, transportation ...
