Origins of Beeyotch

AskMetafilter tackles the important questions like… What is the origin of the slang term beeyotch? The responses are fairly enlightening. I’m pretty sure I picked it back in London in ’98 (courtesy of Hoey and Hipp, for those that know them). That thread also contains the following joke which made me snort with laughter:

Q. What does Snoop Dogg wash his clothes with?
A. Bleee-yatch.

    “well, we have beeyotches…”

    Reminds me of another joke:

    Q: What does Bruce Lee drink?
    A: Waaaa-taaaaa
