Dictdef of a slang term.
RickK 23:09, Aug 10, 2004 (UTC)
Delete: Slang term, but it has been around for quite a while. I think it originates in
Joe Bob Briggs's movie reviews, where he refers to any exploitative element in a movie as -fu. It's funny when he says it.

Please Merge with
Kung fu. The phenomenon of appending "-fu" to words and "your [whatever] is weak" jokes are extremely widespread. And
Animefu, is, in fact, a popular Anime website linked from the front page of
Slashdot. -

On second thought, Gwalla's right, the Kung Fu article actually is a bit long. Just plain keep. -
RedWordSmith 21:42, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Widely-used suffix with an interesting, if silly, history.
Wile E. Heresiarch 06:33, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Agreed with Wile E. Also, merging with
Kung Fu would merely clutter that article with something that isn't terribly relevant to its topic. Keep. —

Keep. Aside from the reasons already mentioned,
suffixes are included in Wikipedia. I don't see any reason to exclude a
slang term. Maybe we need an article listing slang suffixes?

Keep. I've done a bit of work on it.
Fire Star 18:25, 13 Aug 2004 (UTC)
Keep. Reasonably close to encyclopedic. -

Your wiki-fu is strong,
Fire Star. Keep.

Delete. Seems meaningless. No one knows what it means. ("Peeping-Tom fu. Handcuff fu". "Flame-thrower Fu". "Whiskey-bottle Fu". ???) Joe Bob Briggs seems to use it for everything and anything; it'll mean garbage soon.

Explanation needed
"Fu is a word meaning expertise" appears to be an unsubstantiated claim - when and where does fu = expertise? A link to a relevant, explanatory page would be more useful than a link to "expertise".

I agree. Some explanation needed here. A bare link to "expertise" is not informative.
