Ya it actually started back in the horse and wagon days. Whip was used to "steer" the wagon and horses around. Pretty interesting really.. so ya _really_ old school I would suppose.

WOW this term is really 15 years old? First time I heard was a couple of days ago. My daughter is 14 and she has never called it a "wip". I figured she would know this term.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Whip
Whip When the steering wheel was first put into use in automobiles, it was called the "whip". The whip is what you used to control the horses on a stagecoach, hence the analogy. Many years later, various hip hop artists noticed that the Mercedes-Benz logo resembled a steering wheel. They then proceeded to use the old term "whip" to describe any Mercedes-Benz vehicle. The term has now been generalized to classify any expensive automobile. |
