1. the combining of two idioms, which has the effect of confusing the audience, rather than clarifying the intention.
2. the incorrect application of a single idiom, which leaves the audience mystified.
Examples of a Jacobism are:
1. We'll "pull it out of the ball park". "Do you mean, 'Pull if out of the bag' or 'Hit it out of the ball-park'?"
2. We're "barking up the wrong track". "So are we 'on the wrong track' and 'barking up the wrong tree'?"
3. We'll need "a three eyes check". "You mean a four eyes check?"
4. We need to "get our ducks on a plane". "So we need to get our ducks in a row? Why do they need to be on a plane?"
Yet another loud and pointless wikinazi from English Wikipedia. Nobody cares about this sorry imbecile again. Known to waste time with overly retarded questions. Jimmy Wales will get his money again. Don't worry.
I know Jacobolus - said no one.
I trust Jacobolus - said no one.
Jacobolus is a cool guy - said no one.
