Badass Jew

Self-explanatory.

If you still don't get what "Badass Jew" means, though, think about The Bear Jew or real-life badass Jews such as Doctor Ruth (a Holocaust survivor and a Haganah member).

Lewinsky

Literally "son or descendant of Levi", thus a Levi (or Levite). The name is Ashkenazic Jewish in origin.

Surprisingly, there was a noble family in Poland named Lewinski (according to Wikipedia). Monica Lewinsky (as far as I know or care to know... well, as far as I know; though now I'm interested in looking up whether Miss Lewinsky) is not related to the Jewish nobles in Poland.

Caffeine drip

A literal IV drip filled with caffeine. Apparently, a caffeine drip is not a joke.

I myself can't quit caffeine. I was in withdrawal so badly during surgery that I could not hold down even water as much. They literally had to hook me up to a caffeine drip. The drip rate was two hours instead of one hour because the nurse did not want to blow out my vein.

Czernikowski

An Ashkenazic Jewish and Slavic surname, "Czernikowski" (pronounced "T'sh-er-nee-kov-skee") is a name related to "Black" ("Czarny" or "Czarna") or a place name (e.g., "Czarnia" for the Czarna or Czarnia River in Northeastern Poland).

Unfortunately, a number of Holocaust victims bore the name "Czernikowski" (according to YadVashem.org). The Czernikowski family often cited by Yad Vashem seems to come from the Lodz and Kielce, Poland regions (among other places).

Ax

How OJ Simpson might say "Ask". On his part, it would be a pun intended... or maybe not.

"Can I ax you a question?" (Pray that OJ Simpson never "ax"s you this.)
