Was just thinking of one odd ball this morning. I said it to one of the godfors (god forbids = kids). And i got the WTF are you talking about look...

Actually it's a phrase "eck as like"

Used in "is it eck as like" meaning 'no it isn't'

"Memory banks"

They used it on Star Trek and other shows before computers became as widespread and they were a lot more mysterious to the general public.
