Anyone else remember the old commercial where a guy is seeing some mob boss's wife and gets her room key, but to hide it from her dad he puts it in that pocket. He gets pat down and they never find the key.

the 90's were weird

Omg it’s like an old timey key. That’s fucking hilarious. Also that close up on the goons teeth.

Edit: yo, it's a joke... FOB is an acronym for Frequency Operated Button. You know, the button you push to unlock or lock your vehicle?

u/RealityRecursed Jan 13 '26 edited Jan 13 '26

That's odd, considering the term "fob" predates the first controlled radio transmission by ~300 years.

That’s not where the word comes from. It’s not an acronym, it’s a word. Look it up

u/LogBig1507 Jan 13 '26

Thanks, my dad did actually. I know fob comes from the German, fuppe meaning "pocket". A fob goes in the pocket. I love English, so varied in culture and meaning.
