a Jew's mind.
Reception:
Nyeh is not a derogatory or anti semetic phrase but rather claims ownership of anti semetiam and associted stereotypes.
Nyeh why should I hide the fact I am not a moron with money. Nyyyyyyeeehhhh.
Etymology:
nyeh was coined in 2006 at the University of Leeds when a bill was being split amongst a table of Jews and non Jews. The pehnomenon of splitting an un even bill triggered the outburst of 'nyeh why should I pay more'. Since then it has been used an estimated 4.8 million times and is now widely used in the UK, US and Middle East.
Usage:
Eskimo's have adopted Nyeh when dealing with transactions in whale blubber and kelp.
Example:
1."If you give me your business I will double your profits. All I ask is 10%
commission. .Nyeh." (Vocal or mental dependent on how well
acquainted the two parties are).
2. "Shall we
split the bill?
No, I only had a salad. Nyeh why should I pay more." (Again in the mind or vocal)
