Overall: 
Article is new enough, long enough, neutral and plagiarism-free. Hook is cited and interesting. QPQ has been done. I only have on qualm, which is admittedly super, super nitpicky: the lead states that the term is slang, yet it isn't mentioned in the body (or sourced in the lead), which would make that claim unsourced...

- @Pamzeis: thanks for the speedy review, and good catch! I cut "slang" and replaced it with "informal", because I couldn't find a sturdy enough sourcing ground for it. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:50, 23 November 2021 (UTC)
Older than 2003 edit
The term is older than 2003. I've heard it used all my life, and I'm pretty old. No need for citation. Yadda yadda original research yadda yadda. 2600:8801:0:2B10:61BE:91CD:FBCA:4CBD (talk) 18:35, 3 November 2023 (UTC)
