The words "crap" and "crapper"

The word crap is old in the English language, one of a group of nouns applied to discarded cast-offs, like "residue from renderings" (1490s) or in Shropshire, "dregs of beer or ale", meanings probably extended from middle English crappe "chaff, or grain that has been trodden underfoot in a barn" (c. 1440), deriving ultimately from late Latin crappa, "chaff".

The word had fallen out of use in Britain by the 1600s, but remained prevalent in the North American colonies, which would eventually become the United States and Canada. The meaning "to defecate" has been recorded in the US since 1846 (according to Oxford and Merriam Webster), but the word did not hold this meaning in Victorian England, although it is now an extremely common word in English colloquial usage. The connection to Thomas Crapper is conjectured by Hart-Davis to be an unfortunate coincidence of his surname.

In Welsh, "crap" is the word for "inkling", but the version of "crap" being a vulgar term for faeces is still used. The occupational name "Crapper" is a variant spelling of "Cropper". In the US, the word "crapper" is a dyspherism for "toilet", although it is not clear whether this has anything to do with Thomas Crapper. The term first appeared in print in the 1930s. It has been suggested that US soldiers stationed in England during W.W.I(some of whom had little experience with indoor plumbing) saw many toilets with the name 'CRAPPER' on the high-level cistern (called a 'tank' in N. America) and brought the word home as a synonym for "toilet" — a sort of back-formation from "crap".

A much simpler purported explanation is that Crapper's flush toilet advertising was so widespread that "crapper" became a synonym for "toilet", and people simply assumed that he was the inventor.

Wikipedia is great!

^That wasn't random, so, I'm off for a crap!

Wikipedia is great!

Wikipedia is So - So.

In the main it is pretty good, but beware of people who edit segments.

Viscious thing to do. Told me kids to double check anything in Wiki......

I double check everything in any encyclopedia. I read in 'Websters' that Ireland has 33 counties!

I think that if you edit Wiki, the edit has to pass approval before it's actually posted. I use it almost daily. Entries vary in standard (hence the Wiki ratings system) and there is usually a caution attached where an assertion is made that is not supported by a reasonable reference. I consider it to be one of the most valuable aspects of the Web.

I still use Wiki, there is a wealth of info/opinion there not found in more staid publications.

Still need to double check it tho'.

Certainly NOT knocking it as such.

Pete, are you aware that your 'signature' is being displayed as the code rather than the intended effect?

...Still...

Changed now, I hopes........LOL

And where's yours Ping?

ps Mine reads "Grace & Peace" in Thai.

I no longer have a use for mine. I can neither think of anything profound nor witty, so it will remain blank for the mo. Perhaps George could lease the spot out to one of his sponsors (as long as I get my 20% cut.)

How about 'Ping not Pong!'

Or, 'Just doing a Ping test!'

Or just google 'Ping' and you get 95,100,000 hits - bound to be something in there profound or interesting!

Well I'll try anything twice. Okay, I'll spend five or ten minutes going through those 95 million Google hits and see what I can come up with.

Good on yer cocker, I look forward to a signature within the next 10 years!

I like this definition from dictionary.com:

PING: a pinging sound.

Who would have thought ?
