It's a portmanteau of "yellow-bellied" and "spineless"

Wtf

This word originally applied to birds that literally have a yellow belly, like the yellow-bellied sapsucker. From there, it came to mean an insult for cowards. If you're afraid to ask someone on a date, you're yellow-bellied. If you're easily frightened or spooked, you're yellow-bellied. This is often used as an insult or challenge, like "What are you, yellow-bellied?!"

Bert used to be an okay guy on Bianca's. He only lost his sanity after Lynne got into his head and began stalking him. That old man has a lot to answer for.

Your spine is a coward.

Bert can take responsibility for his own actions, thanks.

Respectfully, you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about Lynne is an expert social manipulator. He knows how to get into people's heads and twist their minds. I have fucking seen him do it to people. He is a terrible person and the only human on this Earth that I truly hate.

A fifty year old man is responsible for his actions. It's completely absurd for you to totally absolve him of any responsibility because "syntax did it!!1!!1"

Yellowbellied sapsuckers are one of the best named birds.

It sounds to me like this "Lynne" character is the world's greatest Internet troll.
