Seems like made-up. Googling for so-called "inventor" Richard Alan Guillory Jr returns no relevant hits [1]. Vanjagenije (talk) 23:26, 15 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Although I'm tempted to keep this as proof my own psychic abilities (during the 1970s I frequently used a phrase that would not be invented until 1995? Whoa!), I guess I'll have to defer to the policy guideline at WP:Wikipedia is not for things made up one day. Cnilep (talk) 02:28, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Although this may be a term in common usage in some parts of the English speaking world, I don't see any reliable sources to verify it, and certainly no sources to verify Guillory as its inventor. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 04:00, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Per Wikipedia is not a dictionary nor a home for unsourced arbitrary neologisms. Philg88 ^♦talk 07:02, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This may belong in a dictionary, but not Wikipedia. Also, the information is wrong; I used this term in the 80s. Frmorrison (talk) 20:21, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
