Slang for the nose?

[edit]

It seems this might also be a slang word for a person's nose. Equinox 21:57, 27 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

"Anything shaped like a bugle, round or conical and having a bell on one end." Er, like what? Equinox 21:56, 27 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Like one crisp of the brand named after the plural. It appears to me that it is actually multiple brands naming their crisps this way. Fay Freak (talk) 22:30–33, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
This feels a bit like having a definition saying "anything rabbit-shaped" at rabbit and so on. Not very helpful. Theknightwho (talk) 09:52, 28 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
I wouldn't count the crisps if that is always a capitalised brand name. Equinox 10:00, 28 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
