Received Ideas Dictionary app for iPhone and iPad

This app offers an offline version of "Dictionary of Received Ideas" or "Dictionary of Accepted Ideas".

The dictionary is a short satirical work collected and published in 1911–13 from notes compiled by Gustave Flaubert. It takes the form of a dictionary of automatic thoughts and platitudes, self-contradictory and insipid.
