Hinged is an academic-slang term that describes someone who is a sane or rational person.
Having humble origins dating back to the early Middle Ages, the term is a palpable model of linguistic evolution The word was originally introduced in Old English as 'hlincge,' which indicated the component of a door or gate that allowed it to swing. While we can't pin the credit on one sagacious wordsmith for its conception, the evolution of language and its nuances are an often communal and collective effort. Numerous unnamed artists of articulation across the centuries have shaped its development. Making its debut in the English language in the 1300s, 'hinged,' in layman's terms, made an indelible mark and has continued ever since. As a metaphor, it instates the visual imagery of revolving around a central point, being dependent on, or extremely significant for something else.
This imagery is a perfect match to describe someone who is calm and intelligent. As someone who is unhinged is off the hinge; someone who is hinged remains on the hinge, and continues to be a beacon of logical thought.

Get the Hmong Ruam mug.From the episode "Bubble Buddy" of the francize SpongeBob SquarePants. SpongeBob (The main character) wakes up, while wearing a fake ginger beard and Viking hat. Then sits up in his bed then says directing to the audience "Hey everybody it's Leif Erikson day. Hinga Dinga Durgen!". The line 'Hinga Dinga Durgen' teases the way Vikings spoke.
