I have to question the notability of this so-called phenomenon. He was on two reality shows two years ago and hasn't caught the public's eye since. It's time for him to go.TheNate (talk) 03:37, 14 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: seems to be a case of fifteen minutes of fame. Brief appearances acting silly do not count for notability. I would also have to say that "internet phenomenon" is quite an overstatement. –ArmadniGeneral (talk • contribs) 04:37, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
