When giving a cheerful ‘okie dokie’, and specifying that you use another word at the end, what word do you use?
When I was a stupid little kid (as opposed to the stupid adult I am now), I somehow got it in my head that the saying was, “okie dokie paul-la-lokie.” Yeah, that’s not a word. What of it?
Anyway, even though I know it’s nonsense, it still goes through my head any time anyone uses the phrase “okie dokie.”
“Smokie,” but with a Bogartesque lisp - “Schmokie.”
Okie dokie finokie…but I rarely end it with anything.
I just noticed I fat-fingered ‘Artichokie’ (‘io’ instead of ‘o’). If a mod would care to fix that, that would be great. :smack:
I’m another finokie. At least, I would be if I used the expression.
I think the last time I used that phrase was about the last time the kids and I said “23 skidoo” and got into our jalopy and drove off to the barn dance.
The hip kids now say, “groovy” and “far out”…get with it, man.
Okie dokie, little pokie. That’s all I’ve got.
I say ‘groovy’.
But I say it ironically.
Um, I say it very oddly. If I don’t say just okie dokie, then usually I say okily dokily my little shuhnokuhlee. Yeah. I dunno why, I just do. I think my mom made it up one goofy day when I was very little and it stuck. I try to avoid saying it to people I want to respect me but I usually don’t remember until about halfway through and that’s just awkward.
Thisch.
If I don’t just terminate it at “Okie doke,” then it’s “Okie dokie doggie daddy.”
Okie dokie, Pokey is correct. All other versions are abominations.
The one and only time I’ve ever used the phrase, the final word was “Loki”. (I was, at the time, speaking to someone who plays a priest of Loki and a MLP:FiM cosplayer. How could I resist?)
Usually it’s just “okie dokie,” by itself, or with “finokie.”
That is, if I said it at all.
I do say artichokie sometimes, but usually I say dominokie. Which looks super weird spelled out.
Also, I say it all the time. I thought it was cute, but this thread is making me re-evaluate my position.
Fenokee after the swamp made famous by Pogo
Usually I say Artichokie, but sometimes I say Pemberoke. I’m not sure where that came from.
Okeefenokee.
Not that I’ve said this more than 5 times in my life, and always post-ironically.
Never heard of any of the others.
