Moderately Confused by Jeff Stahler for March 28, 2023

It’s somewhere hither and yon

Last time i saw it dear. It was right next to the doohickey.

It’s somewhere in the junk drawer.

Honestly! You keep confusing me with all these technical terms.

Check the doohickey drawer.

My mother used to talk about searching for “an oodle-addle for a duck’s bridle.”

It’s next to the thingamajig.

Yes, it’s in the oojimaflip

Go to the hardware store looking for a doohickey and when they ask what I’m looking for, it becomes interesting as I have no idea what it is called. Like the thing that you can screw into wood and thread a pipe into to secure my fence.

No, but I know where the doohickey and thingummy are.

Right next to the woosiewhatsit !

Forgetting the name of things is not Alzheimer’s; it’s Sometimer’s.

It’s also known as, um,

Two junk drawers? LOL

Easily translatable by someone who has lived with him for a very long time.

It’s in the other drawer.

Check to make sure that little red-headed girl from the beach hasn’t been going through your drawers. I am given to understand that she collects that sort of stuff.

@allen@home – very good response!

Do dads find doodads?

I bet it’s on the shelf right next to the thesaurus. :)

If I could remember what it’s called, I’d probably know what I’m looking for.

I lost my dongle

I’ve been married for so long that my spouse knows exactly what thingamabob I am talking about.

It’s on your keychain.

They are both somewhere in the Whatchamacallit Drawer, not the Junk Drawers.
