Veeblefetzer is a concocted word, attributed to Mad Magazine, meaning, roughly, any gadget or object which is unnecessarily complicated or whose function is largely unnecessary or foolish. Examples of its use:

My veeblefetzer broke and I can't find the right dreetspreel to fix it with.
Ah, the veeblefetzer of my dreams has just come up on eBay!
How's your veeblefetzer today, old man?
I'll show you my veeblefetzer if you'll show me yours.
