: : Anyone know the origin of "OFF YOU POP"?

: It isn't a standard phrase as far as I know, the kind that would have a known origin. ~rb

Sans context, I would suppose it to mean "go" or perhaps, "come" in some very informal way, as in, "I'll just pop in for a moment," or "I'm going to pop around to his place for a bit." Or, "Oh, you just popped in, did you? Well, you can just pop out again."
