Her friends were too embarrassed for her to point out that her latest download app was actually a letter opener/windshield scraper mounted on a fridge magnet...

Etymology: gizmo (a device that is very useful for a particular job; something whose name is either forgotten or not known) & Obsession (an unhealthy and compulsive preoccupation with something or someone)
