"Is OBAMSTER a word formed from OBAMA HAMSTER?"

Back in the early 90s, SNL had the, "Richmeister," sketches which resulted in a lot of people applying the, "-meister," or so my the, "-ster" suffix to other people's names, titles, etc. It was originally used as a term of endearment, but became so trite and overused that it started to be used as a term of derision or diminution, which is how I've always applied it to Obamster.

So you think my handle is a little dated?
