Rumor has it that Ethan Dicks may have mentioned these words:

Living in Michigan my whole life, I've heard it -> well, I need Linux-speak
for this:

blow [smoke|sunshine] up your [skirt|ass]

(basically, any combo of the words in brackets, making for 4 different
variations)

but like Ethan, I've never heard sugar come into play before.[1]

More OT Drivel for the list... ;-)
"Merch"

[1] I've also heard a variation with a bug crawling up one's arse - to mean
that one was quite irritable that day...
