what is a 'sneaky pete' ? where does it comes from?
I heard Bryan Cranston saying this at Emmy Awards yesterday, and I searched on Urban Dictionary and the Internet but the meanings are so weird (?) I mean, he said this nickname was related with someone lazy who takes short cuts. but where does it comes from?

(I think he didn't say skinny, did he?)

Answer

Can you find the video where he said this?  I'm wondering if he said "a sneak(y) peek".

We really can't help you without context.

Answer

He said Sneaky Pete. I looked up it too and the definitions describe either a cheap wine or a type of pool cue that people use to hustle other pool players. I'm not sure of the origin but I think the general idea is that because we was lazy we would use the cheap or underhanded ways of getting things done with the least amount of effort. That's my take anyway.
