Talk:glizzy

RFV discussion: August 2022–February 2023
Rfv-sense: 2 of the 3 definitions on the page: 2 (slang) Hotdog. 3 (slang, vulgar, uncommon) Penis.

Each has a single cite. Sole cite for def. 2 is clearly a mention. DCDuring (talk) 22:23, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah come on, like every minute somebody is dropping glizzy to mean hot-dog if you search Twitter by recent (I checked this some weeks before already to convince myself), and at the same time in the comments when somebody makes a video of his one, in such a fashion that one often would have to look it up (if one isn’t a lexicographer and hypebeast who is up-to-date about the linguistic memes), so this is clearly widespread use (since mid 2020, as suggested by my etymology); though the “quote” be a mention, which I have not got around to replace, perhaps finding that the quote at least serves to illustrate the original location of the sense as believed by some speakers at the point when the word became frequent.
 * I hesitated with the “penis” sense indeed, which may be daffed as an idiosyncrasy, though demonstrated possible, even if we had three cites, inasmuch as we know that any comparable object is liable to mean “penis”. Fay Freak (talk) 22:57, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Cited the hotdog sense. J3133 (talk) 23:20, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't usually look at Twitter or Facebook or Usenet, nor do I hear this in any speech or music I listen to. I suspect there are others like me in this regard among our normal users. "Widespread" use in some limited set of media is not the same as "widespread use" in the meaning of WT:CFI/WT:ATTEST. A term that is in few (no?) other dictionaries, except possibly paywalled OED and Urban Dictionary, needs real, unambiguous citations if we are to continue to aspire to being a professional-looking dictionary.
