Move to Wiktionary?
Move to Wiktionary? This seems like a definition to me - WayneMokane 06:54, 18 December 2004 (UTC)


 * I was suprised there wasn't more about gurning here actually. I'm sure it's a big enough subject to write an encyclopedia article about (not that I know of much more to say) and how about a photo anyone? -- Nojer2 16:59, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Gurn for the DJ
Seems more like an advert for a club than a fact. I have never gurned for the DJ, despite a long and illustrius career of clubbing. -Anon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.128.52.145 (talk) 20:25, 31 October 2005 (UTC)


 * Know exactly what you mean. I've been clubbing for years, never heard "gurn for the DJ" -Anon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.6.15.170 (talk) 11:31, 26 January 2006 (UTC)


 * This was infact a shortlived craze in the nightclubs in oxfordshire(they do exist)and hs died out in recent years -Anon — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.65.208.29 (talk) 16:13, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

gurning
I followed the "gurning" link to see the fish from whose name the word is derived, and it turns out there are a few unrelated fish to which the name can refer. Could someone figure out which "gurn" is being referred to? Phoenix Flower 20:34, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
 * The claimed derivation of "gurning" as relating to the appearance of a gurnard is, I'm afraid, suspect. I've updated the definition in the entry and done a certain amount of cleaning up. Bob 15:09, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Davina MaCall
Is Davina MaCall really skilled enough at gurning for this article? I know she pulls faces at the camera quite a lot, but she has hardly made a career from it. Scollk 16:32, 18 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Are there people making a career of making funny faces? Do any colleges over vocational training for this highly valuable craft? --Achim (talk) 23:52, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
