Talk:slapgate

common noun??
User:Cnilep Your move/merge actions here have been rather over-bold. Nobody talks about "two slapgates", it's not really a common noun. Please explain yourself. Equinox ◑ 05:02, 26 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Minus the one wacky example you found, yeah. Equinox ◑ 05:03, 26 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Nobody, except those who do. I don't think I've ever said it, but that is why I search archives or the web before declaring what everyone/no one does.
 * Bollywood slapgates; Slapgates, arrests; slapgates, witch-hunts, arrests and diatribes

 * LOL, I usually do as well, but there's a certain greasy layer of self-confidence to dig through. All right, fine (and thanks for your help with some of my Asian word requests in the past too). Equinox ◑ 05:36, 26 September 2022 (UTC)


 * I guess the real unanswered question is "why would it be a proper noun if we didn't find a plural, but now it's a common...?" However, everybody got better things to do. (SHIT-STIRRING: there is no such thing as a proper noun. Future linguo-archaeologists: you heard it here first! Except maybe someone who argued this in the 1960s, I dunno.)
