    I all my many years, I had never heard this expression until the PIT. Is it a regional thing? Do people actually say it? Like when you hit your thumb with a hammer? :p

    It reminds me of the Mormon "oh my heck." I'm assuming "oh, snap" translates to "well, fuck me" :confused:

    i say this alot. its way old school though so i do it on purpose cuz people get annoyed! :D for me its equivilent to HOLY COW!!!!!

    "Oh snap" is about the farthest thing from gangster on the planet.

    I would've said the same thing until I started reading people's example of where they've heard "oh snap!"

    *My Name is Earl
    *House
    *That's So Raven
    *Biz Markie (as much as I love the Biz, he's no gangsta)

    Selling a 5-year old kid to Turkey is pretty gangsta though, I suppose.

    Sike (psych) is from the mid-80's. Snap has to be like '89-'91.

    eh..I don't I think sike/psych was from the mid 80's. I remember people saying it when I was in High School. But then again I have problems remembering what I did yesterday..lol
