Let me introduce a couple of terms that we coined in my old agency days because they still make me laugh.

A wanklet is a completely useless element on a page that does nothing other than satisfy the often ridiculous demands of a difficult stakeholder. A hero slider is a wanklet.

A tosslet is a lesser wanklet. It’s mostly pointless, but it does potentially provide mild amounts of usefulness. A burger menu is a tosslet.
