<VV>Plastic Thing

[Harry Yarnell]

Apparently you wern't around a few years back, when 'the horrid plastic
thiny' reared its comical head (pun intended). Someone called that red
plastic electrical post on late models this name, and everyone thought it
funny, and continue to this day calling it that. It's a term of endearement.
