Kwyjibo is a word made up by Bart Simpson during a game of Scrabble with his family. In the episode "Bart the Genius", Bart puts "kwyjibo" on the board, scoring 116 points (22 points plus Triple Word Score plus 50 points for using all seven of his letters.) When Homer demands Bart say what a kwyjibo is, Bart replies, "A big, dumb, balding North American ape… with no chin. (referring to Homer)" Marge adds in, "…and a short temper." At this point, Homer chases Bart away, causing him to exclaim, "Uh oh! Kwyjibo on the loose!"

my sigs on there aswell..
if anyones interested, which they wont be ...The phrase first appears in The Simpsons episode "Lisa's First Word".[1] During the episode, there is a flashback in which Homer Simpson and Bart are watching the Krusty the Clown show. During the show, Homer notices that Bart likes clowns and decides to build a new bed for him, shaped like a clown, rather than buying him a new bed. However, due to Homer's questionable handicraft skills, the clown bed has a highly menacing appearance, causing Bart to imagine the clown behaving terrifyingly. Instead of "laughing himself to sleep" as Homer intended, Bart stays awake in a fetal position repeatedly uttering the phrase "Can't sleep, clown'll eat me."
