Word: bazinga Part of Speech: intj Etymology: Probably from zing. Appears to originate from the X-Files season 7 episode "Hollywood A.D." Popularized as the catchphrase of the character Sheldon Cooper on the American sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Pronunciation: /bəˈzɪŋɡə/ 1. Exclamation indicating a successful trick or prank. Example: Once again, you’ve fallen for one of my classic pranks. Bazinga! 2. Exclamation indicating a successful outcome or sudden realization. Example: Go back to the iPod app on your iOS device and click on the “More” tab. There you will see a new heading titled “Shared” which lets you choose between your iOS library or any Shared Libraries you have enabled on your WiFi network. Bazinga! Example: I have never gotten anything less than an A- when poster board is involved. So — bazinga! I'd make a poster of the life and times of Markie's family. Guaranteed to melt his parents' hearts. 3. Exclamation acknowledging a witty remark. Example: So, Marc, as you can see, we don't use the word "pot" very often in stories. But you also see that it is used frequently in headlines. The reason is simple and has nothing to do with a lack of respect for medical marijuana users. When it comes to headlines, size matters, and the word "pot" fits in a lot more places than "marijuana." It's really that simple. It would be easy to figure that headline writers just aren't what they used to be, that they've gone to pot, so to speak (bazinga!).

Word: double bookkeeping Part of Speech: noun Etymology: By a metaphor with literal bookkeeping that evokes (1) a mental echo of the double-entry method thereof and (2) the notion of keeping two sets of books as a way to cover up the truth (i.e., by a different figure of speech, to cook the books). 1. The tendency, among those who experience delusions, to perceive reality and the delusions as both being real, while remaining unbothered by the discrepancy or inconsistencies between the two. Labels: idiomatic, uncountable Example: page 56: It is especially important to know that these patients carry on a kind of “double-entry bookkeeping” in many of their relationships. They know the real state of affairs as well as the falsified one and will answer according to the circumstances with one kind or the other type of orientation—or both together. This last is especially frequent in mis(-)recognizing people: the physician “is now here as Dr. N.,” at other times he becomes the former lover. pages 58–9: Therefore, he will at times answer correctly and at other times incorrectly, according to the constellation present in his mind at the moment. Nowhere does the “double-entry bookkeeping” stand out more prominently than in orientation. A patient, who for years speaks almost nothing but word-salad and acts accordingly, may nevertheless be perfectly capable of registering everything that goes on around him, even to the very day and hour. page 147: Thus we have here two different personalities operating side by side, each one fully attentive. However, they probably are never completely separated from each other since one may communicate with both. Personality too has its “multiple bookkeeping.” In conversation, a patient may completely ignore or misunderstand any of our arguments and yet interpret them correctly at some later time. Example: While we waited for the doctor to evaluate him, my father did what mental health professionals refer to as double-bookkeeping. He remembered most of what transpired earlier in the day but still believed he was in the hospital to have his pacemaker checked.
