Did you ever wonder how expressions get started? Somebody says something, somebody else hears it and repeats it and pretty soon it's everywhere. What if we tried to start an expression ourselves and spread it intentionally. Do you think it's possible, or is this just nuts?
My idea is to spread the phrase "that's the hokey pokey"--meaning, that's what it's all about. Say you're a Peyton Manning fan. Somebody asks you what you think about him, you could say, "I think he's the hokey pokey." You'll probably have to explain it at first. But I think it could work. If it does go mainstream, remember you heard it here first.
