We've grouped words and phrases into thousands of clusters based on a statistical analysis of how they are used in writing. Some of the words and concepts may be vulgar or offensive. The names of the clusters were written automatically and may not precisely describe every word within the cluster; furthermore, the clusters may be missing some entries that you'd normally associate with their names.
