A First! No, a 1831st!

I was sure this has has to be the first time the New York Times has used the word "icky" to describe a distasteful thing...

The details of Mr. MacDonald’s case are icky, which may explain why prosecutors pursued it.

Anyway, the latest comes in a story about sex...and some visitors will in fact find it kinda icky, so read at your own risk.



...but no...a search of the century plus archinves of the paper turned up 1,831 other instances. Amazing.
