siamese
Siamese, originally denoting something of or related to Siam (the former name of Thailand), is most commonly used to refer to: 1. Siamese Cat: A breed of domestic cat originated from Siam, recognized for their blue almond-shaped eyes, triangular head, and short silky fur typically in color-point pattern (light body with darker extremities). 2. Siamese Twins: A somewhat outdated term, usually considered insensitive now, referring to conjoined twins, identical twins who are physically joined in utero. In a broader context, "Siamese" can also refer to a type of connection or merger where two or more similar or identical objects are joined together.

Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt, p. 215:

They should, but their September meeting language must be so careful, that 'one and done' represents an increasing possibility – at least for the next six months, the Fed is beginning to recognize that 6 years of zero bound interest rates have negative influences on the real economy – it destroys historical business models essential to capitalism such as pension funds, insurance companies, and the willingness to save money itself.
