It was first introduced during the review Books to make my flist's heads explode: John Ringo by David Hines.
"I do, however, have a finely-tuned defense mechanism: whenever something trips my circuit breaker, causing me to cringe away from the page, I utter aloud a cry that resets my noggin. You will probably need it yourself, so I provide it here, as a public service: "OH JOHN RINGO NO.".
The term spread quickly.
The phrase spread through the internet with several contexts related to bad writing and misogyny.
"Thanks to this whole "Open Source" debate, I've learned a new catchphrase: OH JOHN RINGO NO. And now I've become aware of the source."
