It's not far off what I thought. I think I'll start using it since both the sound and the definition suit one of tha people I work with.

near as I can tell, this uptick was caused by a new entry in the urban dictionary which is probably closer to what you thought it might mean. happily, it is being voted down.

it is being voted down. So, the urban dictionary is one of those wiki things? (She said, having no memory of ever looking at the thing.)

Ceci n'est pas un seing.

I know you don't like to take links provided; but, really, that one was harmless and (I think) helpful.
