Contested prod, wikipedia is not a dictionary of slang, or unverifiable demeaning catch phrases DVD+ R/W 19:54, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Wikipedia has many entries on words that are both Slang and demeaning. Pretending these phrases do not exist is the wrong direction for wikipedia. An honest article that explores the origins and social reasons for such demaning slang is a necassary part of Wikipedia's purpose. Jeffrey


 * Delete. Merely documenting the existence and use of particular slang phrases is not Wikipedia's purpose - except as an introduction to an article with some encyclopedically relevant information about it. In this case there is none of the latter. Henning Makholm 21:53, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Google suggests it's not even used in that context. Fagstein 06:41, 19 April 2006 (UTC)
