In the movie Dodgeball, there’s a scene where the dog is sniffing into Vince Vaughn’s crotch, and he wakes up and says, “Bad dog! No grundle!” I can generally get the idea, but what \*exactly \* is grundle? ---

Grundle is synonymous with ‘Taint’ and ‘Chode’ [alt: Choad]. Literally, the skin between the scrotum and the anus. Clinically speaking, ‘grundle’ is much funnier when paired with ‘taint.’ i.e. “I’ve got a bugbite in the taint and grundle area.” Clinically speaking. ---

Oh god, I hadn’t heard that stupid word since high school, and now I’ve got to try to forget it all over again. Can anybody e-mail me some Mescal? ---

I thought the taint was the, errrrr, area of darker colour around the anus, and the grundle was the perineum (the line between scrotum & anus) ---

They’re all the same where I’m from. Quolloquial terminology may vary. ---

> [@GorillaMan](#): > > I thought the taint was the, errrrr, area of darker colour around the anus, and the grundle was the perineum (the line between scrotum & anus) Never heard that term for taint. All I ever heard was, “taint your balls. taint your asshole.” ---

Check it out at [urbandictionary.com](http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=grundle&r=f). There’s seven damn pages, most of it agreeing with ‘synonymous with perineum.’ ---

Maybe it’s “'T ain’t your balls, 't ain’t your asshole.” Possible? ---

Um…thank you everyone. I can’t believe I’m using my 5,000 post to thank Dopers for defining grundle. So instead, I’ll use it to invite **Hung Mung** to the boards, as I see you’re still a guest! Join us…we’re addictive. ---

So instead, I’ll use it to invite **Hung Mung** to the boards, as I see you’re still a guest! Join us…we’re addictive. **Anaamika** , congratulations on your landmark achievement. FWIW, I had always heard grundle to mean a large quantity of something, as in “Wow, Anaamika has made a whole grundle of posts since she signed up!” Has anyone else ever heard of this meaning? ---

Hanta & Grundle? I think they were two kids that found their way out of New Mexico by following deer mice droppings. ---

Somehow, this will make me view David Cronenberg’s _The Fly_ in a different light from now on. ---

And the movie Orgasmo, and and… Thank god for that - I’d be so mortified to discover that I’ve been misusing the word all these years. As an aside, Orgasmo is a great movie, and I completely trust what it has to say. ~ Isaac
