A style of parenting that provides a full spectrum of emotional and psychological experiences to a child vis-a-vis the parents’ instability and addictions which lays the groundwork for years of in-depth psychotherapies in which the child, throughout their lifespan, has the opportunity to undo the warp and find some semblance of balance and potentially, a sense of a true self.
Yup, at our house it was nose-to-the-grindstone discipline during the week and then Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride when the weekends rolled around; my parents were practicing devotees of Jekyll and Hyde Parenting.

A type of investment fund with very high fees for investors and a focus on complex financial derivatives. Hedge funds charge around 20% of returns (sometimes a lot more) plus a flat fee of typically 2%.
Originally hedge funds were based on the concept of risk hedging; high-yield investments are always riskier than low-yield ones, so a fund manager could presumably put all the money in one instrument with enormous risk and hope for the best. That is, to put it bluntly, insane. So the manager uses a strategy of hedging risk as cheaply as possible, such as a very elaborate combination of derivatives that rise in value if the main asset declines in value.
Hedge funds are organized to be very exclusive, requiring a very long commitment and limited membership. The managers are much more daring and will take much more aggressive risks than mutual funds.

The largest hedge fund company is JP MorganChase.
During the first decade of the '00's, hedge funds outperformed most other asset classes. But when they melt down, like LTCM in 1997, it can be a huge event.

Get the Joe Hodge mug.Frog Hyde was a word that was derived from two different things, 1) frog eyed, which meant red bloodshot eyes, usually from drugs. 2) Mr. Hyde, from that story of Dr. Jeckyll & Mr. Hyde; Mister Hyde was the man that he became after drinking an elixir, which of course was some kind of drug.
All this being said Frog Hyde meens Being extremely fucked up, red eyed, and not particularly yourself but a crazier version.

Get the Frog Hyde mug.Shadow is a black hedgehog and rival to Sonic. He was created by Gerald Robotnik to be the Ultimate Life form. Shadow can use the chaos energy to shoot spears, teleport, freeze time, move very quickly or even explode. He wears 2 rings on his wrists that control his energy. If Shadow takes them off, his energy increases drastically. He can also use the 7 chaos emeralds to turn into Super Shadow.
Shadow : You never cease to surprise me blue hedgehog. I though that capsule you were in exploded in space.
Sonic : Well, what can I say? I die hard. You actually saved my, you know.
Shadow : It was a Chaos Emerald, wasn't it. But there's no way you could have activated the Chaos Control using an emerald that's fake. So, there's more to you than just looking like me. What are you, anyway?
Sonic : What you see is what you get, just a guy that loves adventure. I'm Sonic the Hedgehog!
Shadow : I see. But you know, I can't let you live. Your adventure days are coming to an end!
That's Shadow the Hedgehog for you.
