After using these objects, a character is told “they will be pulled down and ground into dirt for what they did to you.” A man who puns on his cowboy costume as “Gaucho Marx” leaves a party with a woman dressed as one of these objects. A character (15[1])vaguely recalls the motions of a man using these objects from a nightmare in which he sits in a hotel lobby watching (15[1])a lady (15[1])address a Garden Club. A man who overhears a (*) bartender while using these objects literally follows his advice to go jump in a lake. One of these objects appears on a campaign button in the title sequence of a film in which an “unlovable” war vet receives anonymous phone calls telling him to use them.
