Jeff Dunham, about his wife's purse[^].
This is from "A very special Christmas Show", 2008. The only copy I could find on YouTube was one with Hungarian subtitles; I hope that it won't bother you too much. If you can spare nine minutes, watch the entire clip from the start!

The wife finds it amusing to ask me to get pen/phone/??? from her handbag, I return with the handbag, there is no way I am delving into that pit of stuff!

You're a wise fella for not investigating further. Women's handbags are inherent Klein bottles[^].

This post's subject sounds awfully like a clickbait title. You know, like the "sponsored" links that appear at the bottom of every news article. And it turns out to be a divorce lawyers add. Hats off if it's been intentional.

Without giving hints, I didn't either - I thought it was an acronym.
But ... it's in the dictionary* as a word as well purely from common usage as such I guess.
* I checked my print copy of the OED (2nd edition) which has got to be 20 years old (and is still 7cm thick).

I couldn't believe this was the solution but couldn't find another "word" that fit.

It's a word - it's in the OED, and we use more obscure ones weekly in the CCC.
It was originally an acronym, I believe; but languages change all the time. For example, St. Paul's Cathedral was originally described as "amusing, awful, and artificial" meaning "amazing, awe-inspiring, and artistic".
Even "bruh" is in the OED now. Doesn't stop me wanting to hit people who use it rather hard though.

When I hear someone use "bruh" I look to see if they are cross-eyed, slack-jawed and count how many teeth are missing. And now it's in the dictionary. I guess you can just give me an "OK boomer".

... for my new Windows Store app: Kriegsspiel (War on a Map).
Passed the Certification Test and am hooked up to the store. Still need time for "extras" but it is playable and true to the original.
Most pleased I got the (app and store) name even though it's been in existance prior to 1824 when the tabletop version debuted (Berlin). It's still played table top but I'm not aware of any similar playable simulations.
(Proably my last app).
