Inspired by the classic Disney animated feature, Cinderella, Bitchity boppity boo is a typically feminine response to catty behavior or outrageous behavior. It's upbeat with an edge, and counters the snarl behind the statement with a little more of that "Little Miss Merry Sunshine is about ready to hack you with a machete" feel than perhaps wrawl! or meow.
Clarissa: Oh, that outfit really is you! Did you get it at Dollar General? No, wait - it looks like a real original. I bet you got it at Goodwill!
Desdemona: Oh, how did you guess? Bitchity boppity boo!

A fruity, ginger-flavored soft drink/pop popular in the Upper South that has a high amount of caffeine and a distinctive flavor. It is considered a ginger ale. Manufactured in Winchester, Kentucky, Ale-8-1 got its name as the result of a contest in the 1920s and refers to "a late one," as in those days many people drank a soft drink at night before bed to settle their stomachs. Also featured in the Cameron Crow 2005 film, Elizabethtown. Available through the company store but only sold in the Upper South in stores.
"I couldn't get any Diet Ale-8-1 in Dayton, so I had to drive an hour to Kentucky to buy some. They only have the full-sugar version in Dayton (Ohio)."

A person who gets a thrill out of setting people up against each other, especially in online bulletin boards and often regarding people and issues in their locality. The Political Pyromaniac may take a posting or email message and forward or copy it to another person, knowing that it will cause a virulent reaction. The PP essentially likes to set fires and stand back and watch the ensuing fireworks or explosion. They are also the peeping Toms of the Internet and closet drama kings and queens.
Charles, a known Political Pyromaniac, received a group email post. Tina said a website owned by a man named Jim was "an amusing little supposedly non-political site." Charles forwarded the message to Jim. Jim then sent an anti-Tina email to everyone on the group and copied it to her bosses, trying to get her fired. He pointed out that Tina's husband was "a city police officer," which was not relevant to anyone receiving the message. The recipients didn't really know Jim or why he was so upset or what he was getting at. They responded in Tina's defense. Charles sat back and watched the action and then quietly unsubscribed from the email group.
