This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Was there ever an implication that "no problemo" was Spanish? I'm from a country with 0 Spanish influence and it's occasionally used. I just thought it was because it rhymes.
I mean I think its origin is American Spanglish? But, regardless, it's definitely one of the things that my American friends start saying a lot more when in Mexico. ๐
edit after searching: I guess it expanded further via usage in media? Terminator 2 (1991): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx1GVC8eTkA
