{{trope}}

 

A generally comic form of punishment in which you take someone or something that has been annoying you (or simply the designated [[Butt Monkey]]) and put it to work serving a useful function as a paperweight. Or a hole plug. Or live bait. Or a tv/radio antenna. Or anything in a long list of possibilities that are both a: improbable in real life and b: uncomfortable and awkward, even dangerous, for the person so used. (The danger may be mitigated by the person being [[Made of Iron]] or even [[Made of Indestructium]], which is often the case.)
