It's funny, I never heard "See You, Jimmy" until not too long ago, I was taught "Stitch this, Jimmy" (typically as the battle cry right before you nut someone and spread his nose across his face), nearly 20 years ago, by a mate of mine who'd spent many a year in various boarding schools all over the UK.
