Why you lost yo papuhclips?

* originated in a 1970s episode of the children’s television show, Sesame Street, during one of the infamous Muppet/Child interview segments. The phrase was first uttered by young John Williams III (known as “John-John.”)
John-John is a small, adorable, chubby-cheeked child ----bearing a formidable resemblance to Webster--- who (in this particular episode) has the unfortunate duty of listening to Bert lament his petty bullshit problems.
The crisis in affect: Bert has managed to fuck up at the office, and lose his paperclips (FAIL!) resulting in an unnecessary emotional outburst, which he mistakenly unleashes on young John-John. One would assume Bert would be equipped with the appropriate level of responsibility, being that he is clearly an adult (as illustrated by his ongoing sexual romance with his life-partner, Ernie.)
However, as this segment demonstrates, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZPfBiseAXo) young John-John is familiar with the dilemma of losing one’s paperclips (See 00:14) , and clearly he does not approve of Bert’s reckless behavior.
Even in the spring of his youth, John-John recognizes that one must exercise personal responsibility for maintenance and care of one’s own paperclips. His insurmountable maturity is proven when Bert proclaims that losing his paperclips makes him sad, whereupon John-John asks (in a moment of philosophical profundity) “You make you sad?” (00:22)
This statement is designed to incite an epiphanic moment from Bert.
However, Bert is far too wrapped up in his emo world to take notice of that fact that he, himself, is responsible for his negative emotions.
John-John, we salute you.
And your papuhclips.

A question, more of a statement however, that suggests one is scared or intimidated...there for "hiding" in the pretend "bushes". Normally one should be slightly intoxicated to say this, because bushes is actually pronounced BOOSHES. Use this with caution, as people can get offended from basically calling them wimps.
Courtney: "Hey Chels, Why you hidin' in them Bushes?!?!"

Chelsie: "Lol, what?! You're drunk!"

Hunter: "CHELSIE, YOU RUIN EVERYTHING! I HAD THAT SPOT WARM AND YOU TOTALLY SAT ON IT! GOD!!!"
