What does a doohickey look like?

You want to watch the Rugby World Cup final in the comfort of your own home but you don’t have the channel.

Your mate tells you about a ‘doohickey’ that you can connect to your TV to get it for free.

If you go into the shop now, looking for a ‘doohickey’, you could be searching for ages… because what the hell does a ‘doohickey’ look like?

Alternatively if you spent a few minutes clarifying what your mate means by a ‘doohickey’, getting the correct term and seeing an example of one your search could be infinitely quicker.

Finally you could ask yourself, what do I need a ‘doohickey’ for? To watch the final! Well then there are many more options available to you.

You could pay your TV license. You could watch it on the RTE player etc etc.

So to wrap up this rant, I have two points to make:

1) Clarifying what you’re looking for can save a ton of time.

2) Asking ‘what’s it for’ can provide you so many more potential solutions.
