(n) The cousin of the comedic rimshot. To acknowledge the on-the-spot approach when a person gives a witty rebuttal, comment, insult, etc. in front of a group, in the precise moment which results in a desk bell "ding", just the word itself, or a ding emoji in texts. It is one of the last bastions of honest audience approval and the highest praise for an act of true comedic performance, pure circumstance, and timing, deemed funny to the comedy gods.
Jim (aged 30- telling his group 30-year-old friends about his dating life): ...So after our fourth date, me and Suzie saw a movie, I drove her home, and we made out for the first time.
Nick: Yeah, I remember when I was 14, too. Did you at least give her the popcorn trick?
Group: Oh! That's a ding! (bangs on the desk bell) DING!
