You are correct about it not being familiar phrase among black folk; I've only heard of it from sitcoms. I'm an 80s baby that was raised in NYC; dunno if it's something black folk from other regions in the US might use since slang does vary by region, along with generational differences as well.

To bring some you some Friday joy and further bring my response more off tangent from your original post, here's a link to the sketch I was referring to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aGbaqwovUM4&pp=ygUadGhlIHJvY2sgdGhpcyBpcyB5b3VyIGxpZmU%3D
