"Classy" Freddy Blassie repeated claimed to have invented the phrase after seeing an actual geek at a carnival with a tiny tiny neck. In fact his autobiography was called Listen, You Pencil Neck Geeks and he recorded the song of which you speak. He started wrestling in '35

I stand corrected.  Obviously not a wrestler come lately.

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

On the Office Space special edition DVD they said they used "ass clown" because they were afraid of getting sued for calling Bolton an asshole.  I don't know why ass clown is any less likely to spark litigation, but evidently it was an adlib on the day they shot the scene.

Thanks Jough - I feel....vindicated.

Still, wrestling and Stern have ruined future use of this word for me.  I am inconsolable.

The only reason to be afraid of that is if somehow, Michael Bolton had sued someone previously for referring to him as an asshole.

Which I think would completely fulfill the requirements for someone to actually be Quite the Asshole.

Rewind to comments past: I am fully aware of what the "e" stands for in acoxcae's screenname. I am also fully aware that if I share it here before Saturday, I may be minus an Alex...or a hand.

Never be too pessimistic - you think the worst, but it could really just be a sequined drag queen.
