I'm an engineer and yes...I use a lot of duct tape but after 35 years of marriage my wife still translates items she can't put a name to as a "thingy". I've let this pass with a smile but have wondered how many people actually use this word (if it is a word) during everyday conversation...

Halfway between a gizmo and a doodad.
Thats called a phatch-a-motter. You use it with a bisco-fig-nut.

I work in a home improvement store, and you wouldn't believe how many times we get customers who want the part that goes with their "thing".
Another good one is when they ask for a "standard" door or window.

Well, in any case, I just e-mailed daddy a link to this thread! tee hee
If he'd sign up instead of being a lurker, I could just ping him.
