lava-lamp-switch

An old American Indian trick whereby two seemingly similar objects are swapped for nefarious purposes. Originally, tribesman would switch wigwams with another tribesman if they found their wigwam to be leaky.

The recipient of the new wigwam then bears the cost of fixing the leaky cover. The term was modernised in 2006, after it was noted that broken lava lamps resembled leaky wigwams.

This behaviour has also been observed in ant society, in particular with reference to the species "Sless".

Switch

To be a bitch, and talk in a derogative about someone in front on their face, and then start talking to them as normal, complementing them excessively, to cover up the hurtful comments.
That girl Sarah is such a Switch, the way she was speaking to Holly like that and then complemented her like nothing even happened.
