Cause of authority issues.

I suugest it is a mispronunciatio of the french "s'il vous plait." The less educated of the time picking up what they thought they heard and used it to affectaion. Thus it became prety please

I always thought it meant "Mmmm.....'kay."  Like Hmmm....Okay. Or maybe kinda like what that counselor character on South Park is always saying!

Its Filipino tradition to say PO or OPO when younger people are replying to older people. Its a sign of respect.

the candy came first and I think that they had to sign off on the concept for the cartoon.  Who knows, maybe it was a marketing ploy to make children want the candy more.  What is in that 'power juice' they drink before they go bounce-crazy anyway?

It's not so formal. It is in a more common language. It's one of those names that mothers call their children. Could you imagine a mother calling her 10 year old Charles?

I think the person who wrote this put it in Google and got a crappy MSN name out of it.\n\nI think they MEANT to say 'no mas Senora bueno chico'.\n\nIt literally means 'no more mister good people' which is NOT what was intended.

Ok, it's not a Sci-Fi more like a stupid comedy, but in American Pie (not the un-cut edition the regular one) there was a mistake when they were at the party at Stiffler's where MILF came into effect. When Stiffler was in the room about to get it on with that girl and he took a sip of you know what, at first he was holding a red cup then he was holding a blue one. It drives me crazy. There are a few more that I have noticed but this one is the one that sticks out the most.

“What’s your name? "\n"Puddin Tane.\nAsk me again, and I’ll tell you the same.”\n\nAll I know is the it is considered a "traditional African American children’s rhyme."  I looked and looked...this was all I could find.

Spelling it "tickety-boo" I found:\n\n"But some find a link with the British Army in India, suggesting it comes from the Hindi phrase tikai babu, which is translated as “it’s all right, sir”."

Alot of people think it means homeboy but it actually is what English colonists used to call each other in the heyday of the British empire.  If someone was born in bonny England, they were cally a homie.  As in 'Home - ie' .  African american culture appropriated the term as a way to gain status over the  white establishment because the British empire outlawed slavery long before the states did.  Some upper class britsh expats still use homie as a badge of endearment when working or living overseas.  Its use in hip hop circles is just another example of that particular sub-culture's mastery of irony.

It is a term coined from Goldilocks, a fairy tale character. Goldilocks went to the three bears' home where she tried out everything until it was just right. For instance, she saw three bowls of soup and decided to take a tiny sip of each. She didn't like the soup in the great big bowl and she didn't like the soup in the middle-sized bowl but the soup in the teeny tiny bowl was just right.\n\nThe implication is that instead of management, this company uses the trial and error method.

NewJoe is correct, Macaroni was the name of a coffee/chocolate house in London frequented by homosexuals. But Macaroni came to be a slang term for the elaborate clothing favored by the patrons, a style that was all the rage even with straight men and women for a while ... lots of lace and ruffles, velvets, bright colors, and so on. \n\nThe phrase is making fun of Americans for being provincial, for not understanding the nuances of fashion in the big city. (Kind of like people in New York City make fun of tourists from Kansas who don't know how to dress?) \n\nThe idea is that Doodle was trying to be high fashion on the cheap .. it takes a lot more than just a feather in your hat to come up to be 'Macaroni', just like it takes more than fancy shoe laces to be 'South Beach'.

Correction : cerotillo,hueco pisado,pinche huey. They don't cuss any more or less than the rest of us,they just have a unique way of doing it. FYI: Cipote isn't a bad word,it just means little boy.
