How to resolve AdBlock issue? What's the Word? Use it in a humorous way!
As a child of the 1960's I heard the word "Bippy" on the t.v. show "Laugh In." I was 10 years old
when the television show started, many of the jokes were politcal, so I didn't understand a lot of it.
But the show was really silly and I still remember the popular characters, the show still makes me
laugh.
Bippy
So, I am not sure where the original word bippy came from, but I do know the meaning is butt, or
as some say, buttocks.
The fun response so many times on Laugh In was "You bet your sweet bibby!"
Keep in mind, only G rated words were allowed on television at that time.
Next time you want to make your answer clear, just say, "You bet your sweet bippy!"
