tabhole

tabhole: the main cut-away hole in a pull tab of a beverage can --compare: enhanced tabhole (a gratuitously complex holing, as if complexity of tab hole-making enhances product status; artistic tabhole (a tab hole purposefully cut in an artistic manner --like the Red Bull cans' cutout in the shape of a bull). ("TAHB-hol")(n)
Okay, I actually don't mind paying soooooo much for Red Bull energy drinks because they immediately make me feel like I've had a refreshing nap --and bonus points for the artistic tabhole shaped like a bull. My only qualm is if I'm going to drive in heavy traffic while full of Red Bull, it seems like my anxiety kicks up a notch.

In the 80s, kids saved up pull tabs which they strung together by putting wire through the tabhole of each tab, so some sort of charity purpose that usually turned out to be just urban legend. People didn't have Snopes to check back then.
