have a hard-on

SOP. A translation hub, I guess, but do we really need/want this? PUC – 17:40, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

• Keep unless we add the figurative meaning to hard-on —Mahāgaja · talk 20:44, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

• Delete after adding the figurative meaning per Mahāgaja, also seen in give someone a hard-on and get a hard-on.^[1][2][3]  --Lambiam 22:09, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

    I feel such things should generally be incumbent on the proposer when, as in this case, the claimed SOPpiness depends on it.  --Lambiam 20:36, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

• Delete, I have a hard-on (“difficult time”) trying to find this phrase used on the normal web (although Twitter has lots), which shows me the combination is not idiomatic – the occurrences are only because, so many people talking in public nowadays, common words combine in all ways. Of course, we are missing a lot of senses for hard-on as under this long page title and as that slang dictionary exemplifies. Another reason for deletion is that given all those meanings it is unlikely one opens specifically that long page. Fay Freak (talk) 22:34, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
