[edit] Jamoomba
Sigh. More silliness that can't be speedied. Denni☯ 01:55, 2005 August 25 (UTC)
It is silly, as is much of the cultural heft that needs to be cataloged. The question is not whether it is silly or not but whether, first, if it is legitimate, which is appears to be, and second, whether it is large enough to warrant inclusion into Wikipedia. Now, granted, this thing's not getting as many hits as the Flying Spaghetti Monster (Nor is it pertinent to a particularly tawdry current affair) but it is something. As a historian, I have to say the worst part of studying primary sources is when the writer neglected to include information because, at the time, it was considered inconsequential to him. I say include it, until the Jamoombas of the world are overloading Wikipedia, at which point, if it becomes an issue of performance, then consider it for deletion. Were this a self-aggrandizing personal page or simply an attempt to create such a cultural indicator by seeding it within Wikipedia, then I'd be in favor of deleting. Otherwise, why expend so much effort to point out that a silly thing is silly.

- Mighty though his wrath may be, I vote delete. Capitalistroadster 03:14, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- Keep Deleting this drivel because it's so much smaller than the spaghetti monster would be wrong IMHO. Where do we draw the line? This seems to be genuine, why not keep it? I don't particularily want this to be in Wikipedia but I feel it needs to be. --Sturmy 9:14, August 25, 2005
- Verily, O Roadster. Delete and consider blocking user as possible sockpuppet of that "Wiki-cheese" vandal that's been dropping by lately. - Lucky 6.9 03:22, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy sending it to BJAODN now. I expect "Healing Power of Cheese on Wheels" or "Cheese Grand Cru" will be coming around anyday now.Karmafist 03:42, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete — total nonsense Journalist C.Image:Smilie.gif Holla @ me!
I wrote the original, which has been edited by someone else, as a parody of the Flying Spaghettie Monster - cheese does actually have healing power!! See http://www.fitwise.com/Power_Foods.asp. I believe it deserves exactly the same fate as FSM. 04:37, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, don't BJAODN, unlike Flying Spaghetti Monsterism, this hasn't earned widespread media coverage and notice. (Plus it isn't as funny.) the wub "?/!" 11:05, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete inane nonsense. Dottore So 16:13, 25 August 2005 (UTC)
- Delete Give me break. If you want to write nonsense, go to Uncyclopedia. --Lomedae 00:31, August 26, 2005 (UTC)
- Speedy. This most certainly is a candidate for speedy deletion. It's filled with patent nonsense, and amounts to little more than an advertisement for a gaming forum (check out the "external link"). I have no problem with it going to BJAODN, but the assertion that it can't be speedied verges on patent nonsense as well. :-p Tomer TALK 01:15, August 26, 2005 (UTC)
- Delete. What the hell? ~GMH 07:51, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
- Comment User 69.19.14.29 has been removing votes on this page and replacing them with his own nonsense. Please be aware. Denni☯ 19:22, 2005 August 26 (UTC)
- Keep or Jamoomba's wrath will befall your pets and possessions. Jamoomba's wrath is usually focused on one's fridge, so beware, lest ye end up with a nasty intestinal infection.
- BJAODN or Delete. Biased POV anyway. --Rschen7754 22:09, August 31, 2005 (UTC)
