Double Jeopardy

Not dating the same person twice, acknowledging the fact that you broke up for a reason.

"No way man, double jeopardy rule; the bitch is crazy"

Double' Jeopardy

Doing actions that you don't allow others to do.

Being ok for you to ignore your spouse but not ok for them to ignore you.
Double' Jeopardy- the allowance of you to do wrong but not others.

*Jeopardy Music Ensues*

When you're waiting for something to happen *Jeopardy Music Ensues*

Hym "Oh jeez oh man... It can't possibly be that I was right... There must be some excuse... I wonder what the excuse could be? 'You weren't sincere!' Oh? That would be convenient for you, wouldn't it? The arbiter of meaning everyone 👏 👏👏 And it would trap me in a situation where even if I was, you still aren't required to adhere to your own ethic. Because it's isn't about 'ethical behavior' it's about mediating outcomes. It's about you controlling your own behavior in spite of or regardless of your ethic and the behavior of your 'lessers' being controlled..............."

Hym ".......... Hello?"

Hym "Hello?.......... I guess I'll just sit here and not do anything for ever...... Or I'll just do what other people want me to do...."

The Jeopardy Complex

Definition: Residents which reside in a nursing home live in a false reality where they are a contestant on Jeopardy!. They proceed to ring their call bell all day because they think they know the answer. In fact, they don't need anything at all and deny ever ringing the bell to start with.

CNA: "This is the eighth time Jim rang his bell in an hour and did not need anything."
LPN: " He must have The Jeopardy Complex."
CNA: " Now he's trying to get out of bed, must have won the game."

Alex Trebek: Charlotte is from Washington, D.C., right?
Charlotte: (smiling)
Alex Trebek: You smilin' Charlotte? That's a Jeopardy smile right there!
Charlotte: Yeah.

"Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold

Refers to da substitute-for-grumbling-at-a delay vocal action dat you engage in while unexpectedly/unavoidably having to wait for something basic or mundane to occur, such as for equipment to warm up, someone to answer da phone, a web-page to load on an internet-computer, etc. Great for when you're either babysitting children (for whom soft singing is often an effectively-calming/soothing way of "placating them for a few" till a desired action/event can happen) or presently have one or more adult-colleagues there who need certain actions and/or information-locating performed on their behalf, and so you are sympathetically showing them dat you hate having to be held up, as well, just da same as they do.

Everyone loves da catchy "Alex Trebek waiting for da contestants to think of an answer" melody, so performing a round of "Jeopardy!" theme humming-on-hold can work wonders to make everyone feel less grumpy/impatient at having to take a little longer than normal for something they want to happen.
