Enigmas

1. What does 'holy shit' mean? Esp when Americans use the term. I can see it being holy and shit as in cow dung in India but I suspect it means something else here. 2. Okie Dokie - what is that all about? Slang? Some tirbal exchange that stuck without facebook? 3. High Five - then on the flip side - other than making for good comedy in Seinfeld I am baffled by this ritual amongst Americans too. What might the origins of this be? 4. B'jeezus - I guess its a derivative of a call to the almighty but then again used in the context of 'scared the b'jeezus out', am not entirely sure about how it got in in the first place. 5. WTF (spelled out) or any variation of the 'F' word (probably the most popular of the F words in the entire Merriam Webster) is by far the most bizzare of them all.. Now one might conclude that this blog is F'd up too.
