double down

Originally a term used in the card game blackjack, where a player doubles their original bet in exchange for exactly one additional card; most useful when the remaining deck is offering extremely favorable odds of making a total of twenty-one.

The term is increasingly used as a media euphemism when political figures tell bald-faced lies and when confronted with contradictory statements, the politician not only fails to retract their claims but instead expresses an increased certainty in their truth.

The political candidate claimed that 99% of the violent crimes committed in the United States were perpetrated by Canadians. When challenged with data indicating that in fact less that 0.1 percent of crimes are committed by Canadians, the candidate opted to double down, claiming that the data was incorrect. Further, the candidate pledged to, if elected, expel all US citizens with Canadian ancestry from the country.

Double Dutch Douche

An individual who evinces blinding acumen in the field of douchebaggery so as to evoke the skill and dexterity necessary to execute double-dutch rope jumping tricks.

A mansplainer on the internet saw fit to explain thermodynamics to an astronaut since, of course, as a female, she couldn't possibly comprehend the mechanisms of liquids in vacuums...he reached epic DOuble Dutch Douchebaggery levels however by failing to understand the concept of "spontaneous reactions" and has never been heard from again.

Twitter Double-Double

The rare moment when one receives at least 10 Retweets and 10 Favorites. It requires a dedicated fan base, and for celebrities it is 10,000 Retweets and 10,000 Favorites. The Twitter Double-Double will not be counted if you are asking for retweets/favorites in order to receive something in return.

Joe: "John, your tweet got 12 Retweets and 11 Favorites!"

John: "No way! I got a Twitter Double-Double!"
