If my SIL says " okey cokey" again I'll scream.....

[MintyChops]

Just that really. She is staying at the moment and everything is okey-frigging-cokey. I know I'm being intolerant and unreasonable but it's really irritating....

I knew someone who after every single sentence he spoke said
'It was like aarrrghhh'
'It was like whhoooa'
'It was like eeerrrkkk'
A different sound and a different crazed face each time along with an action

I am guilty of 'excellent'.
"I drew you a picture, Mummy."
"Excellent!"
"I've got some chocolate cake in for later."
"Excellent!"

I blame Bill and Ted.
However, it's not as bad as Crank it up to the Pepsi Max. Or Coolio. Or Fabracadabra, as an ex-colleague used to say. "Okaaaaay?" at the end of a sentence just reminds me of South Park.

As for the okey-cokey - did you put your left leg in, out and shake it all about? or just turn around?

I always thought it was "okey dokey".

I do recall in the very late 70's, early 80's that some of the sayings were 'Okay fine' and 'Okay yah'. There was another that I can't remember, but I did use 'Okay fine' .
