Not like any adjective I've ever seen. Equinox ◑ 23:02, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
- Well, it could be worse -- at least we don't have catbutter. Yech. -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 23:24, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
- I've done my duty: one legitimate, durably-archived cite. Unfortunately, that's all I could find. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 00:29, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
- Both cases look more like attributively used nouns to me, but whatever. —Angr 08:23, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, I've removed "idiomatic" because I don't see how that is applicable. I've changed it to a noun, "sometimes attributive", possibly with no attestable plural. And I've removed "contemptible" from the definition because (i) it's not an adjective, so cannot have adjectival meaning, and (ii) both citations are just referring to something that resembles a cat's butt. A third citation is still needed and I think sloppy, undersourced entries like this are making a mockery of the project. Equinox ◑ 14:39, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
- Added six Usenet citations. Also re-added the plural form, as it's now attested, and edited the definition to be more in line with the newly-added cites. Astral (talk) 08:00, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

- RFV-passed. Thanks, Astral!
- Is this an alt form of cat butt? Is cat butt an alt form of this? - -sche (discuss) 18:05, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
