The utterance favored by bungling lab assistant Beaker of "The Muppet Show" has been banned at Danvers High School in Massachusetts after students said it to repeatedly interrupt school.

Principal Thomas Murray says the word was part of a disruption planned using Facebook.

The Salem News reports that parents recently got an automated call about "meep!" from Murray. He warned them that students who said or displayed the word at school could be suspended.

Murray says the warning was needed because students didn't heed his "reasonable request" to stop the meeping.

Danvers High sophomore Melanie Crane says it doesn't mean anything in particular.

Seriously? All I can say is...

Spoiler

Meep.

That guy sure can't take a joke. I wonder what he would be like if he watched Comedy Central...

I guess they must have said it WAY too much. The principal probably did what he should have done. If it was being said so much that it would interrupt school, it probably should be banned. The principal might be going a bit far, though.
