Whipper snipper?

palegreenthings May 8 2007, 18:28:04 UTC

i wonder if that is one of those terms that is different in different places (like toque). when i was growing up that was a weed wacker. i've never seen it called a whipper snipper before!

Yeah. I had a hard time finding a picture of something actually called a "whipper snipper" that wasn't from an AUSTRALIAN website, of all things?

I did find a Buddy Wasisname and the Other Fellers (Newfoundland comedy) joke about a whipper snipper though:

I hadnt heard it called a 'weed whacker' until I moved to the States. God, Americans are so VIOLENT. :|
