Consists solely of a definition, and Misplaced Pages is not a dictionary. Somno (talk) 11:22, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

  • Why? Do you know how it could be expanded? Somno (talk) 02:50, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment I don't see what more could be added, this wasn't even part of the original jargon file. That kind of semi slang is highly volative, that particular expression has probably never been in much use in the first place, and in any case, there isn't much to say about most of the entries in the jargon file beyond dictionary definitions that don't belong here.

  • Delete per my stance in nominating one of the sister articles Good Thing and Bad Thing. These three articles (this one, Good Thing and Bad Thing, and Bad and Wrong) basically restate the title and then ramble for a bit about the supposed significance of using these words with capital letters. It's late, and I'm not particularly strong with policy anyway, so I'm not going to try to cite anything, but there has come a point where I'm just throwing up my hands and saying "What the hell is this?" Is an article like Tremendous (currently a redirect to a boat with that name) going to spring up, saying "Tremendous is a really good thing to say about something" which goes on to talk about a book that used that word a lot? Would that be a good article? Don't fall asleep 07:20, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
