Thinging 

n. \ˈthiŋiŋ\ - In a relationship, the intersection between being a "thing" and just being a "fling". A not-so-serious level of dating, that is still more serious than a one-night-stand or a quick relationship. Usually, it occurs when good friends become something more.
"Is Kayla dating that guy now? I thought they were just friends..."
"No, they aren't dating, they are just thinging now."

Swishful Thinking 

When all you can think of is making 3 pointers, or making a basket that is a swish. This is common for poor shooters, who dream of swishes all day, and then celebrate when they finally make one, after multiple misses. This is called Swishful Thinking, as they continue to shoot and shoot, knowing they will finally make one.
Damn, did you see Keith hit that huge 3 after he missed like 6 shots in a row. Yeah dude, he is the king of Swishful Thinking.
