Title: What does "bipping" mean? Or to "bip"?
Post by: Ophidian14 on January 11, 2016, 12:00:44 PM
As in:  so-and-so "bipped".  Or, biproads.

Does it have to do with gum?

The Forum That Must Not Be Named split from this forum in 2015. bugo was the one that decided to split it. He thought this forum was too moderated and had too many "silly" threads. agentsteel53 is also at that forum, not this one.

Bip i think is slang for Poo.

And gum is his nickname for my last name. Steve "gum"

My dad told me that when you "bip" the throttle, you're just quickly tapping the gas. You usually use it when you are downshifting a manual.

Bip was Marcel Marceau's character, no?  :biggrin:

IIRC, "bip" comes from mtr.  "Bip" is the sound made when you try to pronounce "BYP", short for "bypass".

I think "bip" is the opposite of "pib," at least in the enclave of northern Kentucky once known as New America.

Definitely not, considering I would pronounce it (if I ever did) with the "by" sounding the same as "bye" or "bypass".

Then it seems we need a definition of pibbing or to "pib".

Also, didn't New America also encompass part of Pensacola, FL as well?

"Pib" is the opposite of bip. It's a vicious circle.

Seriously, I gather from reading some of Tim's commentary that things that bip are good, while things that pib are bad.

I find only three usages:

"This event also included the long-awaited Roads Scholar Summit in Tulsa - which pibbed in a big way like so many other things we know and love."

"It took place on March 15 in St. Louis and drew almost 30 people - from many states. It was 14 years in the making, and it pibbed the amazing St. Louis way, ..."

"Atlanta pibbed like a mullet, it did."
