Definition of the word: Bobbleheads

Bobbleheads - A form of idol from ancient times, the origin of which is still entirely unknown. These tokens -- used for superstitious good luck or ornamentation -- hearken back to a simpler and dumber time when man’s brain could be enticed by shining objects, idols of superstition and even so little as a spring-loaded head that verily bobbles when punched, slapped, poked, jiggled, jostled or smacked with a shoe.
