English (Mad magazine)

 * Thanks, but it seems to have been used as a cryptic exclamation in various issues of Mad before Knuth incorporated into his "Potrzebie system of weights and measures". And the English word comes from Polish (even if those who started using it in English didn't have any idea what it meant in Polish)... AnonMoos (talk) 17:05, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
