Tad Dorgan another cartoonist who started with Ripley coined these phrases that we all use today.
"for crying out loud", "cat's meow", "cat's pajamas", "drugstore cowboy", "as busy as a one-armed paperhanger" and "Yes, we have no bananas," which was turned into a popular song.
"Twenty-three, Skidoo" and "hot dog" in reference to sausage.
