Euphemistic Language

Reader Wil started it. Her comment yesterday about not saying 'shit' because it was vulgar has led me to this post. (For reasons that should be obvious, my photos have nothing to do with today's natterings. )

So anyway, I got to thinking about some  of the euphemisms that are employed rather than offend anyone's ears with the fine old Anglo-Saxon 'shit.'

There's crap and poop and poo poo,

 Doo dahs, squat, and shhiz,

Dookie and doodie and doo doo

And who doesn't know Number Two?

Whatever its name 

Call it crud, caca, or poo,

Vulgar or not, it's all still the same
When it sticks to the sole of your shoe.

Isn't language fun?
