Is there any verification that this word has caught on in popularity outside of Kay's humor? Joyous! | Talk 21:19, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

It produces over 100,000 hits on google, so yes there is verification. Just because something is unknown in America doesn't make it non notable. Damburger 21:02, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Not actually done any specific research myself, but as a resident of the North of England I feel I am more than qualified to give a resounding YES to this question. It has certainly caught on outside of Kay's humour. Even in the Midlands and South of England, where I used to live. Paulfp 14:49, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
The original question is a good example of the Wikipedia policy of verification over truth tripping up over it's own shoelaces.
Yes. The verification is that other countries exist outside America. Asshat.

[edit] Prod removed

I removed the WP:PROD tag as the comments above suggest it would be a controversial deletion. See also last year's comments on the creator's talk page User_talk:Damburger#Tinernet. Not sure which side of the fence I'm on yet, but I think it should go thru WP:AFD before any removal Paulbrock 22:21, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
