This is my mother. Not to be trifled with. She's the only person I've ever met to own a fly swat, a perforated spade designed to kill flies. Why? Discuss.

It's technically known as a "fly swatter", Chris, and it has a proud place in the pantheon of American household goods, along with the "tumble dry", the "central heat" and the "large refrigerate". Your mom's just showing off her cosmopolitan style.
