What do you think of 'all righty'? The word crept into my vocabulary after watching Sex and the City, where one of the characters kept using it. I wonder if it sounds somewhat idiotic to you; it sounded nice to me![]()
It has to be said with a certain intonation... Then it doesn't mean "alright", it is a somewhat sarcastic/annoyed way of saying "alright".
If you say it normally, just to mean "alright", then yes it's extremely annoying.
