Props - Noun. Respect. This shorten version of propers The etymology of props could stem from one of two sources, but since it grew from urban street use only the second is the more likely of the two roots. The first root of Proper is stems from Catholic liturgy. The second possible root is “proper respect”, often associated with single working mothers.

The term propers can be heard in the song Respect, most notably sung by Aretha Franklin.

I’m about to give you all my money
And all I’m asking in return honey
Is to give me my propers when you get home

You will occasionally find lyrics quoted as my profits, so much for user contributions needing to make sense.

(noun) A blog snob is a blogger who looks at a blog and instantly tells you everything that is wrong with it in vague usually vile ways and then sticks their nose up in the air and tells you theirs is better in equally vague terms. They are much like wine snobs who can talk to each other with a certain amount of thinly veiled contempt, but anyone who doesn’t think about wine or in this case blogs doesn’t know anything and doesn’t deserve the least amount of courtesy on any subject.
