    Peef.

    It’s when you fart out of your dick hole. A “Penis Queef”, if you will. Happened to me once when I had a cystoscopy. Weirdest feeling ever.

          I am sorry. I didn’t mean to be flippant. I had no idea that was a thing and reacted in the moment. Are you ok? Is your penis ok? Can you teach me your ways, senpai?

            Yeah I’m good. I guess there’s an over developed muscle in my bladder that caused pain and blood in my urine. Totally benign.

            The tube in my pee hole? Weirdest feeling of my life

              Ok, I’ve had many catheters inserted into my penis, I’ve just never had an expulsion of air. Usually getting it put in wasn’t a big deal, as I was always incoherent or unconscious, but getting it taken out was cathartic and unpleasant.

                  I said something irredeemably stupid as it’s clear I didn’t actually read the last sentence of your original post. I apologize for wasting your time. That said, do you have any pictures?

      I learned a new thing today, thank you!

      Does it sound like peef too? How many decibels do you think you could crank one out to?

    Schmutz.

    It’s Yiddish (?) and is a general term for unspecified dirt or filth. The fun part: once you have identified the filth, it is no longer schmutz.

    My spouse and I picked it up from the Says You radio show years ago, and have used it ever since.

        Its US usage comes mostly from Yiddish, but fun story: I studied for two years in Germany after taking one semester of German (would not recommend, but it worked out), and on my first day, I told my housemate that she had some schmutz on her nose, and she was so excited about the German progress I had already made… I did not know at that time that Schmutz was dirt, but I’ve always remembered it

        Yiddish has like 200+ words for penis, and zero for vagina. they were also used to describe personality types. a schmuck is a general dick. a schmuckgagle is a giant dick. a schmuckus is a baby dick. etc.

      I don’t know Yiddish, but it’s got some good words. I feel like Hutzpah is one that I hear from time to time

        Chutzpah is great! There are tons of great Yiddish words. Some of my favorites are schvitz (to sweat; alternatively a sauna), schlep ([traveling] an annoying distance), mischigas (nonsense or nutty behavior, or kinda similar to a clusterfuck), noodge (kinda like a pest, but said with some affection), zaftig (pleasingly plump, like Christina Hendricks), and kvell (to be really happy/proud, opposite of kvetch).

        No, more like “hey you’ve got some schmutz on your shirt.” I don’t know what it is (might be crumbs or maybe lint) but it’s definitely there.

          Yes, but before I learned that, I saw a video with someone standing in front of a SMEG refrigerator and was impressed by the great lengths they’d gone to to express their fondness of Red Dwarf.

              I know one more thing about it, but the (definitely singular) author of the original Red Dwarf disavowed any association so I shouldn’t mention it.

                  Now you have to tell us, in accordance with space corps directive 1742.

                  Under no circumstances can wild badgers be trained in professional juggling without the written authorization of 2 or more flag officers?

                  I was looking this up on DDG to provide you with a satisfactory answer, but then I learned that I didn’t want to do any more searching on the topic.

                  Mildly gross stuff below. I don’t think it’s too much, but don’t want to overwhelm anyone’s sensibilities since it does involve genitalia. I’m not sure how to do spoilers on my phone but will update my post later after opening this on my desktop.

                  spoiler

                  Fans theorized that “smeg,” a word used as a replacement for cursing in Red Dwarf, was short for “smegma,” a real word related to discharge under the foreskin of uncircumcised men. (The authors of Red Dwarf denied this.) (One of the things I learned in the aforementioned search is that the discharge can exist for both men and women and does not require a lack of circumcision.) The discharge is natural and facilitates intercourse, but can be described as gross due to its “thick, cheese-like” appearance (a quote from my memory that I’m not even going to try to validate because I’m not searching for anything close to a combination of the words I’m using in this summary). I believe the text is also the content of an official card in Cards Against Humanity.

                  There is a Wikipedia entry on the topic. It has some explicit photos. I won’t link it because I’m still not sure how link previews work in various clients, but it is a very short search away.

                  edit: I appreciate the (I think?) reference to Rimmer’s affectations. edit 2: Copied spoiler markdown from another post I made. Hope it works. It’s really not that bad, but I don’t want to upset or surprise anyone.

      It’s funny that quaff is spelled similarly, but has a completely different vibe to it. The two don’t mix at all.

      Well, unless you’re into quaffing queefs, I’m not here to judge.

    Funt. Looks horrendously rude, resembles two terrible English words, but is completely without meaning in and of itself. Unless you let UrbanDictionary tell you that it’s the combination of those two words anyway.

    It’s also the noise things make when launched out of a tube by compressed air, if not the noise made by lighting gases in a test tube, both of which are highly entertaining.

    The spelling “phoont” may be preferable.

      I know exactly what you mean with the air-tube. In video games it’s the stock grenade launcher sound effect.

      I spell it “fwump.” It’s funny that we’re probably thinking of the exact same sound and have different ways to express it
