I bought a box of "push pins" today to use for the challenge and it says Tacks on the box. Also did an image search on google, seems 90% of google feels that push pins are tacks also.

and tacks aren't always things to stick in stuff either. ok, technically, it would be "tack" in such a situation, or tacky, but ya know, when it is all said and done, it's not such a sticky situation.
