How people view magic

[Zenn_Magic]

I’m making a comedy video about how laypeople think when they hear magic terms. Unfortunately I can only come up with two; practicing magic and mind reading/mentalism. I need one or two more magic terms that have a double meaning. Any thoughts?

I like that, unfortunately the only thing I can think of for that involves the warped card gimmick, which I don’t own.

This is a really interesting idea. I'll let you know if I think of anything.

"A pass", "spread control", "clean". I guarantee that a lay person will have a different definition for those terms than what you're thinking of right now.

Double lift.

Or you can say how sometimes magicians say, "Oh this isn't a gimmicked coin/card!" and then, what the layman thinks what a 'gimmicked coin/card *might* be (God knows what mental images they conjure *psst guys, pun intended* up when they hear the term 'gimmicked cards' !).
