Okily dokily is a variant spelling of okely dokely, the catchphrase closely associated with Ned Flanders, the cheerful neighbor in The Simpsons, the long running animated series that began in 1989. Flanders uses the rhyming phrase as a friendly way to agree or wrap up a conversation, and its distinctive sing song delivery made it one of his most quoted lines. Clips of the line later spread on soundboards and in meme edits, where the short runtime and unmistakable voice make it easy to reuse as a reaction.
