zap 1. tv. to shock someone. That fake

someone. The stress from it all nearly
zapped him. I was afraid that one of
those thugs would zap me. 3. tv. to im-
press someone. My big idea really
zapped the boss. I may get a raise. I like
to have something to zap the board with at
every meeting. 4. tv. to stun someone
with an imaginary ray gun. Jimmy
swung around the corner and zapped me.
He zapped me with a water gun. 5. ex-
clam. Wow! (Usually Zap!) Zap! I did
it again! He said, “Zap!” indicating that
he really liked the present, I guess. 6. tv.

me.

That zarf is Martin, and he makes all

most zeeked out. Fred zeeked out and
