That might be difficult to capture! Maybe I’ll film her.

Haha yeah kind of. There are some in London still called that.

But I think it ended up being Roxy because of the musical (and later, film) Chicago - she’s a bit of a tart like Roxy Hart.

And the round squishy blobs of a cat’s paw? They’re called ā€œtoe beansā€. :kissing_smiling_eyes:

I heard that recently and loved it :smile:

I also like the term ā€˜cling-on’ to refer to a :poop: that gets caught in their leg hair.

That is irritatingly specific.

Sorry :smile:

Out of interest… I know Someone’s is a common response to disgusting statements like mine, but nevertheless this is something I’ve never related to. I can quite happily talk about things like that when I’m eating - it’s not like I’m eating the said poo. Is my brain just wired differently or is anyone else just not that bothered by it?

Sorry, that didn’t take long to go off-topic…!

That is not the problem: If someone is talking about the you-know-what then the brain imagines this ā€œthingā€ immediately(*). If I think of such an disgusting thing, my appetite stops immediately. This is just a reaction I can’t affect/influence. I don’t know why this happens, but maybe it’s a natural reaction.

(*) That’s the same system if I say ā€œdon’t think about a red fire truckā€ you imagine a red fire truck.

Maybe it’s only in the italian version, but that character, taken from the Deponia videogame, is named Gizmo.

That seems pretty euphemistic. :stuck_out_tongue: It makes me think more of cleavers.

To cleave = to stick

  • (Old English) cleven
  • (Dutch) kleven
  • (German) kleben

But I think cleavers would also do well as a euphemism. :angel:

What do you call it when your cat dances in another cat’s poop and subsequently makes artistic paw prints around the house?

It’s basically a family tradition for us to talk about stuff like that during dinner.
My little daughter can be very gassy and thinks its the funniest thing in the world right now to blame it on her brother, or me.

I see, interesting :slightly_smiling_face:

And it doesn’t put you off like @Someone? Maybe I should do a poll.

Not really… but I pretend like it does, because you know, kids. It’s the opposite of when I pretend that brocolli is delcious.

I had a dog, once.

It was my friend“s mom. It was the 90s. It was a reference to Gizmo from Gremlins.

But if you really felt like bringing up Deponia, either way I guess you did just that. :man_shrugging:
