vocabulary word of the day - coprophagia :o)

[CAMary]

I am "seriously" cracking up! You science folks get all of the vocabulary! Those who missed this need to read Polly's continuation of the probiotics thread....

Well, at least it gives some biological reaasoning for *why* animals eat poop

My kids have this really low-class/trashy habit of bringing up bathroom humor over dinner (not the "family mealtimes" I ever envisioned...) - last night we were trying to come up with a "term" for when people text message from on the throne....I believe the winner was "text-logging" And unfortunately - it's not just the boys - my husband *totally* eggs them on!! On the bright side my kids are *totally* comfortable discussing all bodily functions, which, growing up, I was not....but hopefully they know not do do this in front of company, lest we be renamed, I don't know - The Bundys? (insert any trashy last name here )

Anyhow - I think I have tonight's *vocabulary challenge* - Thanks!

Yep, I think you're gonna stump 'em with that one. LOL. Of course, someone will probably want to come up with a term for a coprophagist who is text messaging. LOL.

You know, there's also a term for someone with an obsessive interest in feces - a coprophiliac. I guess that applies to all of us in this group. Hahahaha.
