Whammies
From Rap Dictionary
>===noun=== whammies
DA names MUha Named after the mascot for the game show "Press Your Luck", the adorable Whammy. Steve Holland created a little devil that came on stage and made fun of the contestant for being greedy; orginally, a "whammy" was a curse or hex, so this made sense. On the show, a Whammy would "erase" all the money you won up to that point, like "Bankrupt" on "Wheel of Fortune." It came to mean anything that would wipe out your money. "I'm out for the big bucks and no whammies" -- Mystikal featuring OutKast (Neck Uv Da Woods) [1]
