What's your favorite euphemism?

Ah, I see.

There's sort of a name -- dried-up dehydrated turds.

But yeah, I don't think that's in wide usage.

(By the way, "Aunt Flo" is NOT my nomination for favorite euphemism. It's dumb.)

You know...that poor fella was named after a TURD.

That is so mean.

How about red tide swimmer?

Overseas Contingency Operation

I've got a few:

Spam purse (fanny)
Flicking the bean (girls wanking)

'Had an altercation with' (one my friend coined to say she fucked someone)... which then lead on to 'I altercated him.'

There's some more but I can't think of them right now.

Farmerman,

Collateral damage wasn't in my vocabulary as a young nurse Lt. in Vietnam in '66. I worked in a Catholic hospital when we weren't taking casualties and one of my jobs was to debride napalm burns from children that we had dropped napalm on. Sears in the memory of a 23 yr old. I guess "Collateral Damage" is my euphemism that I hate the most.

yeh but I owe my life to the Navy Nurses who sewed my ass back together TWICE. (and I wasnt even in a recognized branch of the service).


How about "Legacy Assets"?, thats been doing the rounds instead of toxic assets.

Yes, that is a real goodie too!
