There’s just something about that name, fecal_nugget. I feel that I’m fairly immune to bathroom humor. It takes a lot to gross me out. And yet that names somehow succeeds. So I suppose a certain amount of congradulations for creativity should go out to ole fecal for having somehow captured a term that makes me wince everytime I look at it.
And ordinarily I would simply ignore it. It’s his right to post under that name if he so chooses and there certainly are more digusting names just waiting be had. But he has posted several threads that are at least a strong starting point for discussion. If he was just another nimrod I would pay him no mind, but he isn’t and I would like to take part in several of his threads. Yet I am held back by one of my cardinal rules that I simply cannot break.
Me too. I feel weirded out…and I’m not normally a prude. I thought it was just me but it’s not…It’s not!!! Maybe we can petition him (her?) to change his/her name to Chicken of Bristol?
I beg to differ, Zoggie. Aren’t you the young woman who posted a message about things she fears about going to college and living in the dorms? One of the things that concerned you was, ahem
I think it’s the word “fecal” that does it. I don’t think too many people would have a problem if his name was “butt nugget” or “turd” or “turtle head” or “glob of poo”(OK, maybe glob of poo). But “fecal” somehow makes it sound much more disgusting. I don’t really have any theory as to why this is; it seems many clinical-sounding terms such as “breast” and “vagina” turn people off.
Wow! I never thought I’d get such a reaction… now I’m definitely not changing it:)
As for those of you who might be wondering the origin, It came from a thread way back in the aol board days (maybe not that long ago, but I can’t find the post anywhere so I’m assuming it was), regarding the scientific name for a turd.
Blackclaw: may I use “Never debate a piece of poo” in my sig? I like that one.
