Remembering all the broohaha over the term "pimp up yo ride..."  I thought you might like this cartoon

Think I was the only one to cause any broohaha due to being unfamiliar with the modern usage of the term. I admit to being out of touch with some things but I still find it offensive for some reason. I'm no prude but it's not a term I have any use for.

And I thought a pimp was someone who rented out "ladies of negotiable affection" :-[ ;D

Even though they were speaking incoherently, you could still detect a British/Welsh-scottish-ish accent ;D

I like Weebl and Bob, and thought you would enjoy this cartoon as well...I wasn't criticizing your thoughts on the term...sorry if you were offended :-[

I don't particularly care for it's modern usage either :P
