*'''Delete''' Wikipedia is not an appropriate site for articles about humorous acronyms used in a comedy skit on TV two days ago. The water cooler at work is a more appropriate site. [[User:Edison|Edison]] 13:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

*'''Keep''' Just my humble thoughts. I heard the term on TDS and typed it into Wikipedia because I was curious what else there was to know about it. The article is limited in information at the moment, but I found it useful, and I think others might, too. [[User:24.59.148.187|24.59.148.187]] 13:29, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

This was originally tag as a CSD G1, patent nonsense. I rejected it as a speedy as being a neologism is not a speedy criteria, and it is not patent nonsense. I tagged it for PROD as "Non-notable neologism". This was removed by an anon with the comment. "i do object to the deletion of this article -- i think the term's prominent inclusion in the daily show makes it notable". As near as I can tell, this term was invented by the Daily Show. Beyond this usage there appears to be no other reliable sources using this term. Delete Dsmdgold 04:56, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Delete- I don't see how this article could possible be improved, it's just a random collection of trivia. --(L'Aquatique: Bringing chaos & general mayhem to the Wiki for One Year!) 06:22, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
