chintzy

    • John Betjeman, Death in Leamington
      "Tea!" she said in a tiny voice.
      "Wake up! It's nearly five."
      Oh! Chintzy, chintzy cheeriness,
      Half dead and half alive.

This is a bit of an odd RfD, but I don't know how to handle rfdefs. This cite is supposed to embody a sense of chintzy not otherwise included above. That certainly strikes me as cheap cheeriness, one of the definitions above.--Prosfilaes (talk) 20:28, 13 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

I added the citation. I wasn't quite sure. I've moved it to your suggested sense now. Equinox 02:05, 14 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
