tinselling

Seeing stars.

To have slight vision problems after falling down or having been hit in the head. Represented in cartoons as stars or songbirds circling the victim's head.

From tinsel, the chinsy gold and silver strings used to decorate during the holidaysβ€”The sensation is rather like having threads of tinsel waved just outside your field of vision.

Max: Whoa, you wiped out on that jump. You okay?
PJ: *faintly* Yeah, gimme a sec. I'm tinselling right now...

Tinsel

The Christmas adjective used as a supplement for cool, sick, or awesome. States great feelings toward an object or individual. It is considered a great complement and is only to be used by those worthy enough for it.

Christmas movies are tinsel, especially Elf.

Will Ferrell is tinsel.

If you're good enough to use this word, you're pretty tinsel.
