WAFP
Winglets Are For Pussies.
A derogatory acronym used in reference to the C-17 Globemastser III cargo aircraft. The C-17 is the only US military airlifter to incorporate winglets into its design. Winglets are a drag-reducing feature that improves fuel economy at cruise speeds. The WAFP alludes to this because the C-17 has a smaller maximum range than most strategic airlifters (the C-17 cannot "go the distance"). Other strategic cargo aircraft were designed to have inherently long range. The C-17, however, requires an addition fuel tank installed into the ceiling of the cargo area to increase its range (space which could have been used for outsize cargo). Even with this modification, C-17s are incapable of the flight ranges achieved by similar strategic aircraft. Winglets were introduced into the design to increase range, if only minutely.
The C-17 also has a limited cargo capacity for a strategic mobility aircraft, both in volume and weight. This limitation is further exacerbated when the C-17 is tasked to carry passengers, which occupy valuable cargo space. These weaknesses are especially highlighted when compared to more capable aircraft, such as the massive C-5 Galaxy, which carries significantly larger cargo loads over longer distances.
The lower range, cargo capacity, and passenger capabilities of the C-17 make it a lightweight amongst the strategic airlift community, making it a "pussy". Thus, winglets are for pussy airlifters: Winglets Are For Pussies, WAFP.

That ol' gal of mine drives the 12 lane freeway during the week and a John Deere on the weekends. She likes opra and the Grand Ol' Opry. I love them countrypolitan women.

womp
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
