- "Pingas" is a highly-noted soundbite from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog in which the character Dr. Robotnik says "Snooping as usual, I see?", in which the syllable "-ping" from the word "snooping" is juxtaposed and slurred with the word "as" with heavy emphasis on both, sounding like a shouted made-up word "Pingas" which is compared to the word "penis". This soundbite has been highly parodied as a substantial internet meme. In fact, it has led to a certain amount of vandalism on Wikipedia, sometimes on this very page.
