crappy words!

[Sethomas]

I don't know why, but I hate the word "fart". It goes beyond the crassness of the eponymous (ooo, ooo, add that word to the other thread!) bodily function, I just think that there should be a better word for it that sounds right at all levels of literature. Which is the thing, I encounter "fart" in everything, including the most pretentious of Brit Lit. The oldest reference to it I've had is my favorite medieval diddy, "Summer is Icummin In", written in 13th-Century English. "Bulle sterteth, Bucke verteth, murie sing coucu!" (The bull leaps, the buck farts, merrily sing koocoo).

There's no good way to avoid it aside from saying "passing gas". And that is lame.

1. "bottom burp"
2."fire the pants cannon"
3."stepped on a duck"
4."cut the cheese"

7."oops... i made a smelly" - Richard Pryor

9."make the methane"
10. "rip ass", "tear ass", etc.


And as far as crappy words go, add "EMO" to the list. I have no idea what this word means anymore, if i ever did. In the mid to late 80's, "emo" kind of meant you listened to bands within the punk rock genre that mostly sang about "No one understands me, I can't fit in, blah blah blah". Some folks would say if you listened to anything off of Dischord Records you were "emo". I don't care. I won 150 dollars at a casino this weekend so i'm getting drunk for the 1st time in like two months. Because no one understands me.


And I don't fit in.
