To the East Side! We finally got a piece of the pie!
"The Jeffersons" was a very popular TV show in the 1980s; it was a spin-off of the earlier "All In the Family" show, with the Jefferson family being the black neighbors of the Bunkers. Mrs. Jefferson was named Louise, and her husband George called her Wheezy.
It's kind of cute, but definitely tied closely to the show. And also calls to mind wheezing and heavy breathing.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
