This should probably just be removed. The British slang use of the word "egg" in referring to a person might be worthy of an entry, but the combination with an adjective hardly deserves a separate entry. Wodehouse most frequently used "egg" in this sense with no adjective at all (or only with incidental ones), and other variants such as "old egg" or "bad egg" are also quite common. 64.81.58.33 20:05, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we haven't refined our criteria for colocations yet. Perhaps this would be a good test case, to see how WT:RFV handles them? --Connel MacKenzie 07:06, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
