Around two or three weeks ago, our darling six year old daughter (you know her as Agent 11) started karate chopping everyone in the family while yelling "Hassan Chop!" She claimed to have heard this from one of her friends in kindergarten. While this phrase sounded vaguely familiar and marginally funny, we wondered many times about its etymology. Tonight, after having my right arm mashed to a pulp, I decided to get to the bottom of this unholy development. A quick Google search turned up a reference to a Bugs Bunny cartoon I probably saw 200 times when I was a kid. Also, an entry in the Urban Dictionary revealed even more meaning. Of course, now 99 and I use it all the time, as in "if gas prices go up again... Hassan Chop!", or "the cat peed on the carpet again?! Hassan Chop!" Try it. It comes in very handy!
