read the article to fully understand. its also funny that the abbreviation fad is back in this era. no one spells out get rich or die trying. its GRODT, GKMC. I personally hate it. But thats the new wave...which is really and old wave( Ecclesiastes 1:9 - What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.)

But the abbreviation fad didn't stop there. It mutated, so that the editors would sometimes use, not a proper abbreviation, but a cheekily misspelled one. For example, the phrase "No Go" might be abbreviated not as "N.G." but as "K.G.," just for fun. And so, on one fateful day (namely, March 23, 1839), the Boston Morning Post introduced us to O.K., printing:

...perhaps if he should return to Boston, via Providence, he of the [Providence] Journal, and his train-band, would have the "contribution box," et ceteras, o.k.—all correct—and cause the corks to fly, like sparks upward.

the wife hit me with this link today. i was looking the same way.. i'm always on some "what does that REALLY mean?" but this one got me. i would've never known the true answer. it also once again lets you know, you can add anything into your language if you so well choose. So in essence is there really a PROPER way to speak?NOPE. thats some Elitist.... But even us peasants like the fact that we can strive to be great so we roll with it too.

Not Technically a "Doctor"
According to PLUS LESSONS that I learned in a Ras Kass song, the so-called "OK" is a demonic Cauacasiatical satanic homosexual incantation that gives energy to malevolent CAC spirits. When you say OK, you are actually telepathically supporting WHITE SUPREMACY and worshiping the gay pagan Roman demongods.
