in my experience (which involves a lot of Yiddish speakers, and american jews who use many more Yiddish loan words than normal) "feh" is a less comonly used word, especialy nowadays. Despite my better than usual Yiddish vocabulary, I did not even think of the word when thinking about the owl until you brought it up (although i had heard it once or twice). The fact is, Yiddish is unfortunately dying out among everyone but chasidic jews, who only use it because they are explicitly avoiding modern culture, including video games.
In a context like this, where the intended meaning is blatently obvious, people just accept it and move on. It is only then the derivation of the word is not obvious that people dig up unintended meanings like this.
... hence why I said, "This is probably me just making much ado about nothing."

This is probably just me making much ado about nothing, but the word feh in "Feh Channel" - an actual word in English, derived from Yiddish - is not the best word to use.
SpoilerGoogle definition of feh
In addition, Neal Karlen states in his book The Story of Yiddish that feh carries seventeen different meanings, of which only one is positive: "Feh! I salute you!"
What do you make of this?

Look at your idiotic baldheaded face, with that mustache like Cervantes! Would you like me to burn it or burn you with insults?

Y'know that vaguely uncomfortable feeling that you'd get if you stared at the legs of the gender you're not interested in? That's how I feel when I see clothes that are blatantly fanservice-y. Loki/Fjorm fall under this, though I feel much worse about Loki.
Ah. Now I kind of get it.
Don't you think this kind of nonsense is rather befitting the two villains' characters?
