A slammin', and yes, jammin' treat in Italian-American culture. The almighty ZEPPOLE is a round ball of fried dough covered in sugared powder. Served by charming vendors during the Feast of San Gennaro in New York City, you can also find them in select pizzerias, mostly in the NY/NJ metro area.
The Zeppole chooses where it is sold.
Major chains are forbidden from selling the Zeppole. It is punishable by death (executives would have to eat every Japanese pizza style ever invented).
The rule governing the procedure for backseat vehicular seating arrangements. If three passengers are forced to sit in the backseat of vehicle containing three spots, the Zapple Rule applies.

Jimmy: "Hey Joe, Frank, and Sam. My cousin Tim is riding in the front passenger seat, so you will all have to ride in the backseat of my 1996 Toyota Camry."
Joe: "Zapple!"
Frank: "Zapple!"
Sam: "Oh shucks, the Zapple Rule. I guess I will have to ride in the middle, but luckily, this Camry's backseat is spacious!"
Literally, "zapped nipple". Walk across a carpet on a dry day, then touch a companion - male or female - through their clothing on their chest to deliver a static shock directly to their areola. The sensation is not painful or lasting, but is hard to forget. Also known as the "Areola Borealis"
He: "Hey, ever have a Zapple?"

He: "Nope (zap!)"
She: "OW! You @#$% ! ! !"
