Oh zoinks Scooby!
Although some believe that "zoinks" was made popular on the Saturday cartoon show "Scooby Doo, Where Are You?" (1969-1972), it was in fact popularized on "Batman" (1966-1968) as an exclamation of surprise or urgency. Scooby Doo obviously duplicated this nonsensical word in its television series that ran after Batman was cancelled.
Robin after hearing of danger: "Zoinks, Batman!" also used in Batman fight scenes where different sounds are flashed on the screen between blows.

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
