Looks like a spitoon or a bedpan. I think I kinda already know the answer, but what's the deal with it?

I think the Pretenders wrote a song about this

I WENT BACK TO OHIO Mecca
BUT MY CITY WAS GONE
THERE WAS NO TRAIN STATION
THERE WAS NO DOWNTOWN
SOUTH HOWARD HAD DISAPPEARED
ALL MY FAVORITE PLACES
MY CITY HAD BEEN PULLED DOWN
REDUCED TO PARKING SPACES
A, O, WAY TO GO OHIO Mecca

"If you've ever wondered what was in that little black building in the center, this is it (for real):"

For real dude, its the eye, the eye of Sauron! Someone needs to figure out how to destroy the Islamic ring of power!

outfitted with flat-panel monitors, neon lights, an amusement park ride, fast-food restaurants and a lingerie shop...

A lingerie shop??? Would Muhammed approve?
