    If you think of it, using the abbreviation ‘psych’ to say ‘psyched’ and to mean you think you have shocked the interlocutor with an intricate joke, isn’t the best use of the word either.

    Etymologically it might make more sense as sike because it makes little sense either way, so why pretend?
