No, no, it's from The Simpsons.

There was a kid in my class who kept saying D'oh. I swear, I nearly hit him. I don't like the word. It sounds like something a caveman would say.

While "D'oh" is rather amusing to hear Homer say on The Simpsons, I don't think it should be in the dictionary. I think that it proves how much we watch television and how much we practically worship those on it. xp

Actually, with society, they might put "D'oh" in the dictionary some day. They did, a few years back, put "alright," which isn't a word.


...Or was it "all right" that wasn't correct? I don't remember; I was in third grade at the time. -headdesk-

POINT IS...with the popularity of the word, people will grow up (though hopefully not) thinking it is a word and just throw it in.

Eck, the horror. Can't you just see it now?

D'oh d^OH (interjection): Used when making a terrible mistake.

Aren't you people being slightly overcritical? It's an exclamation, no different from 'oops' in it's context and meaning. confused
