Sadly, this is all too easy to cite. I have added three quotes to the citations page. Kiwima (talk) 03:48, 11 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
There must be a question as to whether entire phrases with punning substitutions are dictionary content. Cereal killer failed. Equinox 12:48, 11 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
And me three was kept. I think we have to decide puns on a case-by-case basis, depending on their attestability. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 13:35, 11 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Metaknowledge – do you mean that the phrase has failed verification, or that the verification challenge failed (i.e., the phrase has been verified)? If the former, what about the quotations provided by Kiwima? — SMUconlaw (talk) 21:44, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, just a thinko. RFV passed. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 22:15, 26 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

This already has 3 Usenet cites and passed a verification challenge before, as well as being an extremely well-known, widely used and long-standing phrase. It’s offensiveness is neither here nor there. Passed on the basis of the existing cites. Overlordnat1 (talk) 12:06, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
My bad - I forgot to check the Citations tab. I'd hardly call it "extremely well-known, widely used and long-standing" when Wiktionary is the top Google result, though. Theknightwho (talk) 12:17, 21 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
