2) A not-so-subtle way of alluding to someone's sketchiness.
1) Jim- Anyone else notice the guy over there peering over his menu?

Sally- Yeah.

George - Yeah man, he's been doing that for like an hour. What a f***ing sketchopotamus.

2) Billy- I'm not so sure I trust that Frank guy you've been hanging around with, Lisa.

Lisa- What do you mean? He's a total sweetheart. Just yesterday, I ran into him at the supermarket and then AGAIN at the dry cleaner.

Billy- Let me just put it this way: if Frank had a favorite animal, it would be a sketchopotamus.
