Talk:expiration date

RFD discussion: December 2017–June 2018
Rfv-sense "human being". Sure it could be applied to human beings, but also to cats, dogs, etc. Does it warrant a separate sense? – Jberkel (talk) 10:27, 5 December 2017 (UTC)


 * This one is easily cited. I suggest you move this to requests for deletion... Kiwima (talk) 23:57, 5 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Now that it is moved: I think the first definition could pretty easily be reworded to cover this case as well - it is the date at which something or someone expires - whether by becoming worthless, degrading past the point where it should not be used, dying, etc. Kiwima (talk) 10:19, 6 December 2017 (UTC)
 * The second definition is incomplete anyway; I've read many times the phrase "woman's expiration date", which means "the moment when she ceases to be attractive on the sexual market" (it's a reference to her sexual lifespan, not simply her lifespan) --Barytonesis (talk) 10:46, 6 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete/merge into the first definition, and expand it to also cover sexual expiration dates, per Barytonesis. - -sche (discuss) 22:13, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete the second sense. It doesn't matter to me whether the first sense is expanded or not; applying it to humans and animals sounds metaphorical and ironic, but not particularly lexical, to me. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 03:15, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
