I came here through Debi's journal. Any friend of Debi's is a friend of mine. I was also duped by Tricky big time. You can read all about it right here and also check my journal out. Everthing I say in my journal is verifiable. I like your journal and I believe you.
Heh heh, I just love this kinda stuff! Well (ahem) if you want the literary explanation from my research library.. yes I actually have a reference book on slang & curse words.. the earliest known association is from the 13th century. The Dutch word "domp" describes someone 'having a melancholy, poisonous air' or 'to take a sudden fall or plunge,' after which the thing dumped becomes refuse and is discarded. And since it was really hard to clean stuff off those wooden shoes.. who knows, maybe that's why. ¤Holly

Sounds like the random things I come up with. I'm the person who interrupts a production meeting to say, "Why is monosyllabic such a long word?"

You have exactly the sense of humor that my husband does.
I agree. I thought the object was to get rid of it, too. ~Peachy
