Talk:Muppet (slang)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Hmm...
The article seems a bit harsh. I've heard it used a lot, but mostly its in jest, and not meant as a serious insult. Also, there's no mention that the word is so widespread in the UK it can be found in some dictionaries. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.145.242.49 (talk • contribs) 09:39, 10 February 2007.
- I've never lived in the UK or any regions that supposedly use the term as slang, but if you can back up or counter any of the claims made here with published articles in print or online, it would be great for this article. As noted in the edit summary, I created the page to get the continual additions being made to The Muppets off of that article. The slang derivation of the capitalized term has nothing to do with that topic. —scarecroe 17:15, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
