clue-by-four
The notional stick with which one whacks an aggressively clueless person.
This term derives from a western American folk saying about training a mule
First, you got to hit him with a two-by-four. That's to get his attention.
The clue-by-four is a close relative of the LART. Syn. clue stick.
