it is uncertain
sailors are often credited as the source since they have long called their shifts of duty tricks
but cardplayers & especially hos & pimps have also been suggested
as the expression appears to be 20th century American English
I never heard any of my shipmates call a "shift of duty" anything but a "watch." My Great GrandPappy Zebadiah Chandler always told me that "Trix" was a Latin suffix used to form feminine nouns and adjectives. He added that it was often used in the English language for the same purpose (i.e., executrix, dominatrix). American slang uses the suffix to denote an attractive single female (trixie) or to refer to the wife of a close friend (How's Trix?).
The expression "How's tricks?" originated in the early 20th century as a slang way of asking how things are going or what's new. It is similar to asking how someone is doing or what they've been up to. The addition of "tricks" likely comes from the idea of someone showing off or performing tricks like a magician.
No, "hows you" is not grammatically correct. "How are you?" is correct.
The phrase "you suck" is believed to have originated in the United States in the 1970s as slang meaning "you're bad" or "you're no good." It is often used as an insult or expression of disapproval.
A stylistic origin refers to the specific characteristics or elements that influence the overall style and aesthetic of a particular piece of art, design, or cultural expression. It involves the historic, cultural, or artistic influences that shape the unique characteristics of a particular style.
The expression "jumping Jehoshaphat" is a playful exclamation that likely originated as a euphemistic way to express surprise or frustration without using profanity. The name "Jehoshaphat" comes from the Bible, referring to a king of Judah, but the exact origin of the expression is unknown.
Munchies, meaning informal food, a snack, came into being 1915/1920 when such snacks were 'invented' and made popular
