[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a great question. [b]Every Internet source I just looked up says it all stems from the movie. [/b]I was not able to find any evidence that it was used that way before the movie.[/quote]
You must be using the Dumb Google.   :D 
Because I just googled, "groundhog day meaning". The first two results were 1. Definition from dictionary and 2. Wikipedia. They both refer to an old tradition that precedes the movie. [/quote]

DP.

Have you ever heard the acronym "GIGO?"

You should look it up on your smart Google.

The OP didn't ask if the phrase existed at all before 1993, but whether the phrase *with the meaning that matches the plot of the movie* existed before the movie.

[/quote] exactly. We’re not talking about Groundhog Day existing before the movie (duh). We’re talking about whether or not the use of the phrase oh it’s like Groundhog Day (something happening over and over ) due to the movie. Google again see what you come up with. [/quote]
