This finally cleared up a really stupid bit of confusion on my part. I
knew that a couple of the wires on a phone were called "tip" and "ring".
I knew what "ring" must do, but didn't understand why they called the
other "tip", I figured it had something to do with taking it off the hook.
I never once thought of the standard 1/4 photo plug.
and to tie into Dan's current series of photos:

In electronics service we refer to them as tip-ring-sleeve plugs. That
designation goes back probably to the Western Electric Code No. 109,
110, and 126 plugs in use by 1907.
