macguffinite
A useless thing that makes a story look like it has a brain
My mom said the movie was good because of the macguffinite. I said, 'That's not a reason, that's a lie.'
My brother's science project was about macguffinite. I said, 'You can't just make up fake stuff and call it science.'
My friend's video game had macguffinite. I said, 'That's not a power-up, that's a waste of time.'
