Dingus derived from "Dinges", a German word?
Well, let this Dutchie tell you folks that "dinges" is 100% pure vintage Dutch (not Deutsch). I've just phoned some German friends in Teutonia and popped the dingus question: "Was ist das für ein Blötsinn?," their answer was. There you have it. Dinges is Dutch.
Dinges is used over here in Holland, when you can't remember someone's name, like in:

no real definition, can be used as a noun or adjective. dingus is similar to granola in the fact that it sounds exactly like what it is. a dingus is someone who will wear a cone on their head voluntarily, or just be a complete idiot or goofball
when i stepped into the weapon shop, i noticed that the penis armor they were selling was very dingus.
i saw a goofy group of kids who all played tuba, which means they all must have been dingi.
the kid who everybody makes fun of and will do anything we ask in order to try and fit in is a huge dingus.

The removable section of cable at the end of an Xbox controller. The dingus is there so if someone trips over the controller, or if the controller is pulled back too hard, the dingus will remain attached to the Xbox but the rest of the controller will be removed, as a way to prevent the Xbox itself from being jostled or from falling onto the floor. The system senses when the controller comes off, and pauses the game until the controller is reinserted into the dingus.
"Hey, my controller got unplugged from my dingus, could you plug it back in for me, my good friend?"
