"in plural: a general feeling of discomfort, boredom, etc". If verified, needs to be moved to blahs. — Paul G 09:58, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
- It's in dictionaries. In addition to adding content to (deprecated template usage) blahs, wouldn't we leave a breadcrumb, somewhat as-written, at (deprecated template usage) blah? -- Thisis0 15:30, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- I like the breadcrumb, but I'm not sure that it is official policy to have it. It would be easy to verify both singular and plural though. I would claim widespread use for them in the US. DCDuring TALK 16:33, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- I agree on both the widespread US usage and the likeability of the breadcrumb. --EncycloPetey 17:05, 6 October 2008 (UTC)
- Cited at blah and removed RFV, because it really is common (and, as mentioned, is in at least one dictionary). I haven't done anything about the proposed move to blahs. Equinox 01:20, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
