I understand it's meaning but the words, "living crap" have me confused.\n\nI responded to a question about a puppy biting the "living crap" out of the owner's hand. The solution, I thought, would be to remove the crap from the owner's hand. Seemed logical.\n\nWhen I thought about it, I realized, I have no idea what it is, i.e. "living crap." It doesn't sound good.\n\nAny ideas?

ROFL.....I'm dying laughing at your question and at the first few answers. Priceless!\n\nAll crap is dead.....so I'm thinking living crap is of a "zombie" nature and that just scares the beejeezus out of me. Something is definitely rotten in the state of Denmark.....and it smells! \n\nOk let me get analytical here in a very scientific way. (and if you really knew me you'd know that I am as blonde as they come when it deals with science.....I know crap about it. Dead crap that is.) Ok here goes....\n\nWhile the crap is still within your body, it may be a waste-like substance, but it is "living" in the sense that it is being processed and moved along the digestive tract of the intestines. Well, once anxiety hits in the form of "beating" or "biting," it causes your stomach muscles to contract causing the intestines to contract and therefore causing the "living crap" that is moving within to just......well.....emerge! \n\nIronically, everything that would be contained in that living crap is actually dead crap we've all consumed so living crap is an oxymoron (just as my answer seems to be coming from the mind of a moron *shrugs*) \n\nSo I should just "cut the crap" and admit I have no clue. Which leads me to another question. Would I use a knife or another crappy tool? \n\nSee what you've started??

The best, and I suppose worst, explanation I have heard is that "we just don't have a dog in that fight".  Basically they have nothing we want/need so why should we give a damn?  A disgusting thought, but it seems to be prevalent.

It doesn't make sense, so I'd say it's wrong. I THINK this is correct:\nApparently Hazel knew that the cookies were somewhere in the house, for nothing could go in and out of the house without Jake's, the Harkers' Doberman, permission. \n\nRemember, you can take out "the Harkers' Doberman" and the sentence should STILL make sense.

It looks like Dutch words with extra letters in them. In Dutch it could read something like, " 'n gras.....fuk me greata sombito...'n idioto na 'n fuk me wou.. karla soen dog troe 'n fuk on doer karla fuk", meaning something to the effect of, "a grass...f*ck the great someone....an idiot from a f*cken way..karla sees the day coming a f*ck on the karla f*ck. It makes no sense and the way it is put is just a whole lot of rubbish.

Is there a doctor or veterinarian in the house?  Kerry's got a severe case of hoof-in-mouth disease. Will he apologize? No, its beneath his exalted station in life to apologize. The silver on his spoon must have been cheap because its affected his brian.

Only when it comes to animal poo (our cat and dog.) For the dog, my hub will say,"you gotta take a plop?" or  I'll say to the dog, does my honey bunny have take a poo pee doo pee?" I'm crackin myself up typing this. No one ever asked this question before and i bet a ton of people say stuff like this. I have other phrases that aren't so cute, (To the dog) "come on turd factory go poop.

Of course it's a great word.  I think that any word with the sound "oo" in it is a funny word.  Try it.  Doofus.  Goofy.  Poo.  Need any more proof?  Thirty two!!

He is very constructive in what he says, and he has a massive wealth of experience and knowledge. However, he is giving that knowledge in a fairly abrasive fashion, and the person he's trying to help is very stupid this weeks - which makes it good telly.\n\nI mean, where do you find a restaurant owner who can't see what's wrong with having doggy doo in the kitchen?

I don't see how, it's a Latin root which simply means ' black '. What's offensive about that? Confusing, maybe, for me. I'm an artist. I work with color. Having a conversation with someone who's ' black ' but really what I see is Burnt or Raw Umber! Really throws me for a loop. Then, can you see explaining; " No, you're not really black. I see a lot of Iron Oxide Red, with a tad of Ivory Black or, in your case - Burnt Sienna, definitely, maybe a tad Caput Mortuum. " So, for expedience sake I say, yes. You're black ", and relegate it to Academia!

sounds like the article's generalising at a rate of noughts, & so afaic it means don't take it remotely seriously.\n, you'd bee wasting your time

hmmm.. I always thought it meant Llamas Mate After Operas..\n\nBut seriously, it means "very funny".. laughing my a$$ off.

Very funny\nNow I got to Text that to every body, Thanks!\n\nI wonder what you would get if you cross a Shih Tzu with a Bull dog?

Good for you for including the context you've seen this in.\n\nBut...I suspect this isn't a "police" term.  If you're talking about getting into or out of rehab, it's most likely a term used by the folks running the rehab program.\n\nStill, someone here might know.  I've never heard the term and can't even imagine what it stands for.

A guy walks into a bar with a salamander on his shoulder.  He asks, "I'll take a shot, and a cup of water for my buddy Tiny here."  The bartender asks, "Why do you call him Tiny?"  The guy answers, "because he is minute." [pronounced mi-nute]\n\nGet it?  Mi-nute, minute meaning tiny. My newt!  \n\nIt is so corny that it doesn't always translate to the written word.  It needs to be said out loud.

Are you saying it's dangerous just because of it's breed? Or is it actually an aggressive or vicious animal that has threatened, and possibly even attacked people before?\n\nIf you're basing you opinion strictly from the dog's breed, you would be helping to perpetuate the current trend in today's society of blaming the breed, instead of holding the owner responsible.\n\nIf the dog has shown aggressive tendancies, you probably owe it to yourself and your neighbors to report the animal to your local animal control office.

It has no real meaning, it is his little "catch phrase". They tried to imitate it in English as "believe it".
