I figured what it meant. That wasn't the problem. It's more whether people actually used it.

I would say that it is quite a fashionable slang term. We'll see if it outlasts his shelf life.

At first I misread the title as "England's best exports: Mingers" and I immediately thought Hey! You can't type that!.
