bouncingadj.

Etymology: < bounce v. + -ing suffix2.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈbouncing.
That bounces: in various senses of the verb relating alike to loudness, brag, and vigorous or ungainly movement. Often also (like ‘thumping, whacking, whopping, strapping’, and other words meaning vigorous striking) used with the sense of ‘big’, esp. ‘big rather than elegant or graceful’. bouncing putty n. a soft elastic silicone polymer (see quot. 1950). In many of the quotations the exact shade of meaning is doubtful.
