This phrase originates from Humboldt, Saskatchewan, Canada. Heard in the halls of HCI, this phrase was originally used to mock Jared Klimosko, whose nickname is "Bird." Cody Spence and Richard Harbison are the ones responsible for starting this idiotic trend.
Why was this phrase created? Bird just wouldn't sit down.
Richard: Birdgie! Sit down!
Bird: No.
Cody: Birdgie!
Richard: Birgie!
Cody: Birgie!
Richard: Birdgie.
Cody: Birgie.
Richard: Birdgie.
Miss Philips: Would you two shut the hell up?
(pause)
Richard: Birdgie.
(Bird sits down.)
Fogey/fogy /fougi/ sl. (early 18C+, orig. Scot) old-fashioned, stuck-in-the mud.
Person with old fashioned ideas which he is unwilling to change: Come to the disco and stop being such an old fogey!
You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. PenguinBooks,1992. p. 38)
