It looks like this page needs some attention.... missing pic and notice about verifying the term itself's authenticity when it seems to have been verified. BlackAdvisor (talk) 01:47, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Here's where I originally found this term: http://figureelevens.blogspot.com/2010/10/underpants-crime-fighters.html?m=1 I've seen (but not heard) it elsewhere since. It may be something Kevin Smith coined himself. BlackAdvisor (talk) 12:43, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Any takers? It is very difficult to search for this specific meaning. SemperBlotto (talk) 15:03, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

Yes, very difficult to search for. I did find and add one. Kiwima (talk) 19:31, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
 * @User:SemperBlotto @User:Kiwima I just CREATED a citation a few minutes ago and put it there. PseudoSkull (talk) 20:12, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Surely that doesn't count, being of the nature of a mention rather than a real use. Kiwima (talk) 20:18, 27 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Hey, even usage examples in dictionaries count here, so these must too. PseudoSkull (talk) 20:25, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

 * That's Google Groups, not Usenet. Just having a period in it doesn't make it Usenet. Chuck Entz (talk) 21:17, 27 May 2017 (UTC)


 * Re "even usage examples in dictionaries count here": you are mistaken; CFI expressly disallows such things in WT:CFI, as "made-up examples of how a word might be used". There are exceptions to this for some languages, but not English. - -sche (discuss) 18:05, 29 May 2017 (UTC)

Here's where I originally found it: http://figureelevens.blogspot.com/2010/10/underpants-crime-fighters.html?m=1 as I mentioned in the other page I've seen it elsewhere... but for the life of me I can't remember where. BlackAdvisor (talk)
