Oh my.

Did these guys not know that by sitting next to each other that they would get their picture taken?

Is it only in my part of the world where "Dingleberry" means something a bit nasty? :confused: :o :p

This picture was supposedly taken at a West Virginia vs Marshall (College [American] football game: haha! :p

I laughed out loud when I read your post. I did wonder how common that term was.

I have a reputation to uphold here so I did not include a picture of what I know of as a "dingleberry". :o :p

I am a rude and crude guy at heart. It is sometimes difficult to restrain myself.

... so if and/or when I get a little too crude or rude I hope that y'all will help correct me so that I do not go too far with the levity that I am oft tempted to post.

Rick, what a great pic! How often does a photographer fall into such a perfect photo op? Good thing I was only drinking my coffee and not eating breakfast yet. :eek:

QLP! I am surprised you don't know the word. You are one of the most knowledgeable people on this site In my opinion. So, that got me to thinking, "where did the word originate"? Guess what? According to a few web sites, the origins are based in England!

Work Poop - Poop History

"6. Where did the term dingleberry come from?
The term Dingle berry was coined from an English astrophysicist named Herbert Dingle who was born in 1890 and rivalled Albert Einstein. When Dr. Dingle was ten years old he pooped outside while on a camping trip with friends. One little poop ball hung on to his butt and he showed his friends and they all laughed. It looked like a little berry hanging from his but and was therefore called a dingle berry. Though his disproof of the theory of special relativity formulated by Albert Einstein never panned out, he will always be remembered as the man who invented the dingle berry."

I don't know if I believe this though. I think a disgruntled (American) fan of Albert Einstein might have gone a bit overboard in his defense of the man.


Rick, you? Rude and crude at heart? I hardly think so. I don't think there is anyone who can hold a candle to your gentlemanly ways here. Well, maybe Donf. I keep waiting for the Mr Hyde in his personality to pop (or poop, or dingleberry) out.

What can I say, this really is an educational site par excellence!

I always knew them as Klingons.(or Clingons)
Much hilarity ensued with this song:

LOL QLP. I have actually heard that song before but never saw a video. My favorite part is the captain's log!

For some reason, I am now craving pizza. :)
