OH SNAP

1 sense · Free VividLex dictionary · Thesaurus

1. (exclamatory phrase) a playful indication of surprise, misfortune, or insult popularized by Tracy Morgan of Saturday Night Live, OH SNAP is seemingly derivative of [oh no you didn't] where an insulted person, for example a guest of Jerry Springer or often a spunky African American woman contends the insult being made against him/her. While derivative of "oh no you di-int," OH SNAP has more of an emphasis on playfulness and can be said by people other than those being insulted. see also: [OH ZIP] > Ted: Man, where you been all afternoon? > Darrin: I had to stop off at your mom's place for a [nooner] that last a bit longer than expected. > Ben: OH SNAP!
