Talk:like taking candy from a baby

RFM discussion: November 2012–September 2014
I think this should be moved to candy from a baby. --WikiTiki89 13:46, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Why? Mglovesfun (talk) 23:21, 7 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Because I think "candy from a baby" can be attested outside of the whole phrase and the "like taking" part is pretty SOP. --WikiTiki89 18:44, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't remove the verb. Take is much, much more common than steal or alternatives. I'm not sure whether this should be at [[take candy from a baby]] or [[taking candy from a baby]]. The inflected forms other than taking are not very common and seem to me more of a conceptual metaphor than and set phrase. The existence of taking-candy-from-a-baby and [be] taking candy from a baby suggests that the like is not essential, though like taking candy from a baby is by far the most common form and deserves a redirect and a usage example, IMO.

 * Keep as-is due to lack of supporting evidence for any move. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:32, 22 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep: Collins has it. --Dan Polansky (talk) 08:08, 27 September 2014 (UTC)
