Type of Pig, Rhymes with -U

March 18th, 2008 by Mister Poo

Wiktionary is like Wikipedia except its a dictionary.

It reveals what words mean and how to say.

I examine ‘poo’ and discover how to pronounce in English. It rhymes with “-u”.

I discover that poo is a countable noun, also a concrete noun (same as “fuckbuddy“) and that it has synonyms which range from crap, dung, faeces, poop, shit, shite and turd.

It has a coordinate term: pee and it also an old name for a type of pig, better known as a collared peccary. Here is a picture of a poo:

It may be called a poo because it’s known for its smell. For this reason it is also known as a musk hog.

The Philosophy Angle:

Thomas Carlyle called the Utilitarianism of John Stuart Mill pig philosophy because he believed it based ethical goals on the swinish pleasures of the mass.

Oink.
