PINGAS is a word trim from a line in the episode "Boogey-Mania" of the series Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, where Dr. Robotnik, voiced by Long John Baldry, accuses Scratch and Grounder of "Snooping as usual, I see". It is the opposite of Piness.

The quote was first discovered by Steg, who was originally intrigued by the scene for Scratch's goofy expression. She then noticed the phonetic similarities between "pingas" and "penis", leading to her using the line in her video ROBOTNIK HAS A VIAGRA OVERDOSE.

The line has become one of the most prominent Sonic-based memes. Its notability is such that the origins and popularity were covered by a 2020 article in New York Magazine, whose author even interviewed Steg as part of his research.
