Stumbled across this word today _Cagener_. It was a new one to me. I’ll spoiler the link in case anyone finds it NSFW:

[Cagener](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caganer)

I won’t explain it. You’d just call me a liar if you don’t read it yourself. All I know is, I can’t wait for next Christmas!

I had heard of this thing but did not know its name (or that it even had one).

I hadn’t until a couple of weeks ago when someone mentioned it to me. Had it been earlier I would certainly have bought some Christmas gifts at [cagener.com](https://www.caganer.com/en/professions-253).

I own some: Satan and Trump and Hillary Clinton and Obama. I bought extra Trump and Hillary ones to sell when I retire; it’s part of the party fund.

ETA: Ok, considering that this has been misspelled too many times in this thread already, including once where it was used as link, please note the proper spelling: CAGANER. CAGAner not CAGEner.

Also, IMO this is reason enough alone for the Catalans to want (and get) their independence. 😃

If I had known about this 4 years ago, you would now be reading a post by a user named **El Cagenor**.

I knew this word from hearing **Bo** prattle on about his delightful collection. There is one on the kitchen table, where he can gaze fondly upon it over breakfast. The others are proudly displayed on the dining table. If you ever get invited to Thanksgiving dinner at **Bo** ’s, consider carefully.

There was a thread very similar to this one in [2006](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=8083345&highlight=caganer#post8083345).

I learned it here. **Bo** may have been showing off some new models.
