释义

reverse double eviction

This obscure reference refers to the eating of (at least) two corndogs in one sitting. The etymology breakdown is somewhat apocryphal, but essentially is from the latin 'evictus', which has one of the meanings of 'overcome and expel'. Corndogs, by their very nature are non-trivial to process both culinarily and digestively. Shut up Jim! It's not funny!

From www.etymonline.com
evict (v.)

mid-15c., "recover (property) by judicial means," from Latin evictus, past participle of evincere "overcome and expel, conquer, subdue, vanquish; prevail over; supplant," from assimilated form of ex- "out," or perhaps here merely intensive (see ex-) + vincere "conquer" (see victor). Sense of "expel by legal process" first recorded in English 1530s, from a post-classical sense of the Latin word. Related: Evicted; evicting. Compare evince.
Hey Nic, what's for lunch?
