Because the non-echoing quacking duck driving on the parkway next to the forest with the falling tree toward his driveway to park said, “…and noone knows why.”
For that matter, I have always wondered why the redneck term for a toilet is a “shitter.”
It’s not a shitter. It’s more of a shittee, wouldn’t you say?
I mean, I have yet to see one shit, but mine, at least, accepts and disposes of the stuff every day.
So when we’re “taking” a shit, we’re actually “giving” a shit; but sometimes we really have to “take” a lot of shit in order to “give” a shit.
It was funnier when George Carlin did it 30 years ago.
I don’t have to take this crap.
