OWAH!

When did P first start using his trademark yell/yelp/sound = OWAH!?

WHat does Owah! mean, exactly?

When is it okay to use it and not okay?

DOes he ever over use it?

Do U use it? when/why?

I believe he first Owa'd at the beginning of Sexuality..atleast that seems to be

where the Owah was born. But it was a longer sounding owaaah! on Sexuality...and

since has evolved into a more high pitched shorter version.

thoughts anyone?
