23 skidoo

To leave quickly:

I heard it came from the cops in the early 20th Century-probably the 1920s-chasing the hookers off of 23rd Street in New York City and not catching them, thus the hookers gave the cops the "23 skidoo."
Here comes the cops lets 23 skidoo!!!

jiminy cricket

An old term for not saying Jesus Christ, thus not using Christ's(God's) name in vain and not breaking one of the 10 Commandments or blaspheming. Usually used with emphasis.

Now people say: Jesus!, Jesus Christ!, geez!, or geez Louise! instead.

The term is older than the character from Disney films: a talking, singing, and fancy-looking cricket.

Puka Shell Necklace

Mid to late 1970s necklace made of small round white shells.
Worn by surfers, it caught on and was a big fad. Worn usually snug around the neck; they were a status symbol until about 1980; they came back in style for a short time many years later.
Zimmerman: I'm gonna break that Puka Shell Necklace punk!

Me: (HUH?)

P.D.Q. Bach

Fictional wacky and zany composer made up by wacky and zany real composer genius Peter Schickele. He has made many albums that are funny parodies of classical music and music in general and has won many awards. P.D.Q. stands for pretty damn quick but only Schickele knows the truth. Peter can be found at the University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople.
Have you heard any P.D.Q. Bach?
