I've absolutely no idea who coined the expression, but it's something I picked up from a book (as in a dead-tree-printed-version-which-looked-likely-to-sell-enough-copies-to-be-published book) a few years ago.

I rather hope it's not intended to be offensive, given that I've been using it so long.

Nope, I never have. But given the context in which you say that, I shall make an effort to remedy that in the next few months.

No, don't worry - even over here in Blighty, we know George Jr is not a good standard by which to judge the rest of the country.
