until we learned the words for body parts in kindergarten, i assigned them my own functional names. butt/anus was "pooper," vagina was
"pee-er" and the general throat/mouth area was "thrower-upper." i got sick alot when i was a kid and before puking i'd tell my mom apprehensibly that "my thrower-upper feels funny..." blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhgh
A childhood belief about rude bits

- I used to believe lepers came from Ireland. Like leprechauns, only with less body parts.Anon
