Looking through the definitions I found the definition of "falsy" as "A horrible neologism....".

Should a glossary be so judgemental of the reader's perspectives on the term "falsy"?

Please consider adopting a Neutral Point of View for glossary definitions. The Wikipedia NPOV is a good example

I think @jduckles raises a valid point, in which at least we shouldn't add valorations to the definitions. The Wikipedia entry seems to be quite clear about how to proceed about this. I think if @jduckles could flag all of the instances and raise them as a PR we could merge it quickly.

@gvwilson @fmichonneau @zkamvar comments?

The definitions of "truthy" and "falsy" were meant humorously. No objection to them being changed.

Closing as merge of #43 addressed the issue.
