Talk:what the hell

RFD discussion: June 2018–January 2019
Sense "(mildly vulgar, slang) An intensive form of what.". SOP, just what + the hell. Compare why the hell ("why the hell did you do that?"), where the hell ("where the hell are my keys?") and so on.__Gamren (talk) 15:12, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Of course, we should add and leave the example sentence as it is.__Gamren (talk) 15:14, 29 June 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete per proponent. Per utramque cavernam 10:12, 4 September 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep via WT:LEMMING: in MW although only as boldfaced part of their "hell" entry, and oxforddictionaries.com. My lemming-free instinct would be to keep as well; compare also what the fuck. --Dan Polansky (talk) 14:39, 16 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Leaning keep, I see no reason to leave the "who cares" sense by itself, as if that is the only meaning. bd2412 T 02:48, 2 December 2018 (UTC)

Kept. Even without my input, there would be no consensus after more than half a year. bd2412 T 18:38, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
