LOL, then you've used it more than me - lifetime usage, at that - because that's the only time I've ever applied the word, verbally or otherwise... It is particularly crude, I agree. The visuals are really quite explicit. It's also an Americanism - the spelling makes that clear for one -so I suspect I may have absorbed it subliminally from Beavis & Butthead, or similar, and it's been lurking in my subconscious for years awaiting a suitable target. Finally, when I was temporarily lost for words to express my feelings about certain others for whom I lack regard, the mot juste appeared. Fear not, I wouldn't really sully my flesh by using them in that fashion. They'd be very unhygienic, I'm sure.
