    supposedly, the word **** originates from the first world war when you had large dorms of soldiers sleeping in beds with rusty springs and as soon as they got down to a bit of personal pleasure, you could hear the springs moving with every thrust, ****, ****, ****, **** :D

    Words are invented all the time, sure we just invented a new word for a closest homosexual teenager with annoying americanisms and a strong sense of self-entitlement about a year ago, they're called a Jedward.

    Ah but what was it called BEFORE the first world war.

    "The Excitement" or something I would imagine.

    My missus says "frig" all the time the same way other people say "damn" or the like. Finally cracked and told her what it meant a few weeks ago, she wouldn't believe me for a while, turns out everyone from her neck of the woods uses it like that...once they stop I'm taking credit for destroying part of their culture :)

    And yes to my knowledge it is the female version of ****.
