Wow, a brand new 3 year old computer covered with pictures of people I’ve never seen before in my life. Thank you, sir, for bringing this amazing, deal of a lifetime to my attention! :)
Is Ying Yang interchangeable with Yin/Yang nowadays? When I was a youngster, yingyang meant something undesireable (e.g., “One could only come to the conclusion that it was a proper bollix; there can be no logical conclusion other than that the natives took it up the ying yang on that Manhattan Purchase!”), whereas Yin/Yang meant something positive.
I’m ASSuming the lexicon has morphed out from under me again; or perhaps it’s just that it’s no longer considered self-deprecating to identify oneself and one’s associates as “the Anus Twins” or some such.
I was always under the assumption that “ying yang” was an American term used/spelled because the vast majority of us couldn’t care less about other cultures and their languages.
