Talk:I can has cheezburger?

I can haz cheezburger?
Is this real? --Hekaheka 18:36, 11 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Sure it's real, but why would we have an entry for it? Maybe it could be kept as part of an "Internet phrasebook". Nadando 18:39, 11 May 2011 (UTC)


 * There is an internet phrasebook already. It's called "Urban Dictionary". -- Prince Kassad 19:16, 11 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Since we're arguing deletion here rather than verification, I would say that it's idiomatic, but whether it is meaningful is a different story.... &mdash;Internoob (Disc•Cont) 22:25, 11 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't think this really has a meaning at all. It's just something that people say because everyone else does, too. —CodeCat 22:31, 11 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Are you asking whether or not it is idiomatic or attestable? If the former, it might be easily derived from, as I noted in the etymology section, the separate components "I + can + has + cheeseburger" (though whether or not people can figure out cheezburger = cheeseburger can be questionable); and I'd say it's a valid entry as a popular internet meme. If you are talking about the latter, I'd say that it is in popular use, and as attestable as I can haz cheezburger? or can haz or lolcat(s) which are probably used just as often since the terms all originate from the same website.

 * Looks like a WT:BRAND candidate to me, and not one I'd waste my time on either. DAVilla 08:18, 12 May 2011 (UTC)


 * It needs attestation with the definition given, i.e. where it is being used to ask for a cheeseburger and not merely being parroted as a "meme" / popular phrase. Good luck! Equinox ◑ 09:05, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * WT:BRAND can't apply, a slogan isn't a physical product. --Mglovesfun (talk) 09:46, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
 * At the very least, haz and cheezburger are attested nonstandard forms of have and cheeseburger, I don't think there is any doubt about that. —CodeCat 09:48, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Is the gloss right? Would somebody actually use this line when ordering a cheeseburger? Or has this phrase a meaning that goes beyond satisfying one's physical needs? --Hekaheka 12:04, 13 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Does it mean anything at all? Mglovesfun (talk) 12:40, 13 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Move to RFD (and hopefully delete). < class="latinx" >Ƿidsiþ 06:48, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Though we don't have any citations for it. Mglovesfun (talk) 12:25, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Why move to RFD? If people can't find citations for the entry, it should just get deleted by RFV. --Daniel 13:04, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Note the alternative spelling, I can has cheezburger?. It, too, needs verification (or deletion). - -sche (discuss) 21:56, 21 August 2011 (UTC)
