Luciferwildcat entry. There does seem to be a valid 1998 Usenet citation, but that's it. Mglovesfun (talk) 19:24, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Web hits are sparse but there are enough to make me think that this is real — just not something that has been written about much. I agree we probably cannot attest it per CFI. Equinox 11:27, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

First thing that came to my mind was Dr. Rabbit. Seriously, YTP has ruined my life. :( On that note, delete. -- Liliana 02:36, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Surprisingly, not even the short form (first half, with the second half implied) gets any Usenet hits, though I see a few non-durable Groups hits. Citations, it seems, are not like butts. - -sche (discuss) 01:16, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I just found out why, the actual form is opinião é como bunda (with the second part varying much, and sometimes having a third part) which gets many Google Groups hits, but none of them are in Usenet. — Ungoliant (Falai) 01:30, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
