Talk:Badass

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sorry, I didn't have much time to work on it last night, but I feel its current state is a great improvement over the copy/pasted definition from urbandictionary.com. The subject is pretty hard to research, being such a common word, but I'll look into it. -- Skittzfbsd

This is a word in common usage in American English, but it might be a better fit at the Wiktionary. -- Storm

I restored the clean up tag and link to wiktionary. I have also added the original research tag. If the article does not improve soon, I will nominate it for deletion. Movementarian 11:14, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

I disagree that this page should be deleted. If there are articles describing rednecks, hillbillys, mullets, etc., then this also deserves an article. Badasses comprise a small but noticeable segment of the population. Although the term is not synonymous with "hardass," the two are very similar in nature. A common example of a badass would be the kid weaving in and out of traffic in a pimped out Honda civic (see Ricer), slouched over in his seat in a "gangsta lean," and giving dirty looks to anyone who dares to makes eye contact with him. They are very common in suburban Western Pennsylvania.

After watching Raiders of the Lost Ark for the first time, I'm sorely tempted to make this page a redirect to Indiana Jones. --Shay Guy 18:02, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

After spending almost 7 years as Google's #1 search result for the query 'badass', perhaps BadassBuddy.com deserves at least a footnote here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.109.183.250 (talk) 11:57, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
