Please note: I meant "Big fucking woop" in the respect of "Big fucking deal" instead of the amercanisim slur for an italian immigrant.

From the old Neapolitan word, wapo: Attractive man, good with the ladies.
At least, they like to think so.

I didn't know that.
Why do they take offence then?

Cause that's just what us wops say to make it seem better.
Wop stands for without papers.
As lots of Italian immigrants didn't have passports they would stand in this queue at the docks in the 19th century.

I thought it was WithOut Papers, as that was how they arrived
like my great great grandfather, who I think basically made up a name on arrival and kept it
