Man Who Claims He Coined the Term “Snowmageddon” Totally Pissed Obama is Taking All the Credit

Fairfax, VA – The snow has stopped falling in the Mid-Atlantic region, but one man’s attitude continues to get icy.  During an evening news broadcast Saturday night, Ed Grouse complained that he was totally pissed as President Obama stole his idea to call the Blizzard of 2010 “Snowmageddon.”  Obama used the name in opening remarks thanking activists who braved the blizzard to attend the Democratic National Committee's winter meeting on Saturday.  Grouse insisted adamantly that he came up with the trendy name for the “flake-out,” as he also refers to the storm, as early as Thursday afternoon right after a standoff over a shopping cart at the grocery store which nearly sheared off his left foot. He admitted that this slight doesn’t hurt quite as much as no one realizing he is responsible for the now famous cultural buzz words “couch potato,” which he came up with in early ’87, but it still hurts a lot.  He suggested that Obama needs to make it right and a beer summit is just not going to cut it.  Mr. Grouse has insisted that the only acceptable restitution would be for Obama to agree to meet him for a snowball fight on the White House lawn.  However, as Obama hails from Chicago, and likely doesn’t spend most of his days lying on the couch eating Funyuns, we will probably put our money on him.
