No references, dubious notability, merge elsewhere Madcoverboy (talk) 18:52, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

I created the page. I feel it belongs in Wikipedia because it's a significant internet meme that is frequently used all over the blogosphere. I will begin adding references to its many uses over the past 3 or 4 years, and how it represents a significant internet communications convention.QuizzicalBee (talk) 19:02, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NEO and WP:DICDEF. It's a cute bit of net slang, but I doubt there's enough that's been written about it to fill out an encyclopedia article. --Dhartung | Talk 00:40, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Wikipedia is not a slang dictionary. Has no cultural notability. (Isn't it just a poor quality Straw Man anyway?)Yobmod (talk) 12:45, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
