Madoff moment

When you realize that all the money you had been socking away into investments, has already been spent by someone else. Also, that you would have been better off to have spent it all on really dumb stuff like a Corvette, motorcycles, boats, all sorts of big-boy toys; now all you have is basically, nothing.
I just retired and looked at my investments and had my Madoff moment.

switchcraft

The art of word fumble, then recovery.
"Obviously, we gotta stand with our North Korean allies," "And we're also bound by prudence to stand with our South Korean allies, yes," Got to admit that is pretty good switchcraft.

quasi-avatar

Basically meaning something that resembles a virtual character such as a created character via cyberspace. Online role playing virtual environments as Second Life use avatars to portray life-like characters. Avatar has its origin in the Hindu religion as depicting role playing gods, hence a possible dualistic meaning, also.
Bobby plays so many role playing internet games, that sometimes I think he is a real life quasi-avatar.

not being rude, but;

A way to get a point across to someone who you already know has a strong opinion and is likely not even going to listen to what you have to say about a subject matter.
