Today, in 1839, the phrase "OK" was first used in print, in the Boston Globe. It was actually a misspelling of "all correct."
This is not to be confused with "otay," which did not make an appearance for another 96 years, when Buckwheat first made an appearance on the Little Rascals in 1934.

Since you brought it up, there's a project for you, to keep you out of mischief.
