Contrary to popular belief, this is not just an insult.
Little Black Sambo was a series of children's books from the early- to mid-20th century. It centered around the titular character--a little African-American boy named Sambo--playing in the dirt, having a slice of watermelon, and doing many other things. As you may have guessed, this series is and was EXTREMELY racist. However, at the time it was considered very popular. If your parents or grandparents were children during the 50's or 60's, then ask them about Sambo, because chances are they'll remember him.
It can also be used as a derogatory term, which is explored to a greater length in the other definition of this word.

My grandmother gave me a book that she had as a little girl called Little Black Sambo. It was kind of racist...

Get the Samoan Splash mug.After fighting the Thundercats on several occasions I've heard Panthro refer to the samoflange when talking about the Thunder Tank. Sound wise, a flange is an echo. So, logic says that a 'samo' is a prefix. But a prefix for what?
Thunderian, by nature are war-like, but not by upbringing. This leads be to believe that a 'samo' has something to do with the eternal strugal between good and evil. I've also heard Panthro say, while in the Thunder Tank,"Keep your foot off that blasted samoflange!" This only strenghten's my point even more.
These points that I have brought up lead me to make on conclusion what a 'samoflange' is. A samoflange is a nuclear powered, subterrian, tank mounted, brain control echo generator. It makes perfect sense; that tank has more weapons than it needs and Lion-O is bent on 'uniting' everyone under the 'Code of Thundera'.

Get the samoflange mug.An international man of mystery. Where is he from? Nobody knows. How many languages does he speak? Impossible to count them all. He's a modern nomad--you never know when or where you'll cross paths. But one thing is certain, the attraction will be instantaneous. Tall, dark, handsome, and smart as a whip; be mindful of your drooling. And as for matters of the heart, there too he is skilled. A few kind words, a smile, and that gaze, and you'll want to tell him every secret you've ever kept. He's a rare bird, this one. Should you ever experience him firsthand, count yourself one lucky girl!
Me: "I just had the strangest dream...I could've sworn I met a Sambo. But that's impossible. Sambos are urban legend..."
Sambo: "Everything is going to be okay. You've just fainted..."
Sambo: "Everything is going to be okay. You've just fainted..."
