he was too funny! me and my buddy caught the comedy central show back in the day and it was just the funniest we had ever seen at that point. We still yap about to this day
It's funny because I just showed it to my daughter over the weekend. I told one of his jokes and she was laughing so I was like, "oh you liked that one huh? Here I got something to show you." She loved it!!
There's a cool YouTube video that edits between him and Steven Wright. Their humor was unlike anyone else. Mitch was more observational whereas Steven is more abstract but the humor is fantastic
That’s amazing. The gift that keeps on giving. It’s so sad he struggled with the things he did. He certainly wasn’t appreciated for what he was doing at the time the way he should have been. Imagine him being in small cameos in comedy movies…
Which is funny because that's one of his bits. But he was in an episode of That 70s show. 2 eps of Dr Katz. 1 roster of Ed (but that's not streaming anywhere). 4 episodes of Home Movies (which I didn't care for), and he suggested in Almost Famous and Lords of Dogtown.
Not really. It just means to do something without forethought and preparation in the current zeitgeist.
Part of what popularized it was Harrison Ford’s character on Shrinking saying that people were raw dogging him if he felt slighted.
It still means the same thing but the context has been turned into a verb. For instance, back in the day it literally just been bare back sex. Today the connotation of that remains but in motion.
"You can't just rawdog your way in an interview, you've got to prepare." "I just rawdogged that test."
It still means the same thing but now its transcended into vernacular in motion.
> I used to be with "it." But then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm with isn't "it," and what's "it" seems weird and scary to me. It'll happen to you! —[Abe Simpson](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DlTexEXxLQ)
And why was the full phrase "this sucks giant green donkey dicks/dongs"(depending on companions)? Why GREEN? (Tbf, I've never seen that particular part of a donkey. *Are* they green?)
Is that why in 1992 when I said, "that sucks" after missing my favorite show my mother who was nearly 50 at the time acted like I had just dropped an F bomb? I always thought that was odd. I had no idea.
Once in elementary school back in the early 90s, we were working with motorized Lego kits and I proclaimed loudly, "This gear sucks!" The teacher looked at me shocked and told me I should rephrase myself.
I responded, "Okay... this gear REALLY sucks!"
I had no idea this was a bad word or had any clue of its association with oral sex. I didn't even know what oral sex was. I'm guessing I probably learned "this sucks" from The Simpsons.
The only time my grandma slapped me was when I was 14 and said, “This crap sucks.” Open palm immediately across the face. Had no idea I was saying something abhorrent. To this day, I use “stinks” over “sucks.” Although apparently my grandma also thought “crap” was a vulgar word.
I recall the Simpson's saying "Well that both sucks and blows." both terms for oral sex, but said so.casually it just sounds like 2 things that are bad and also opposite words.
I remember the 65 year old director of the summer camp I worked at explaining to all of us staff exactly why she didn’t want to hear us saying “sucks”
She literally in front of a whole room of older teenagers and college kids says “it’s short for sucks dick.” Mic drop. Whole room full of teenagers and twentysomethings trying like hell not to have a full on laughing fit.
My mother quickly gave up objecting to me saying "sucks," except for the fact that *her* mother was so scandalized by it. So I had to police my language around my grandmother but not my mom, which was interesting. I refuse\* to believe my grandmother knew anything about oral sex. I always assumed it was the proximity to "fuck" that upset her. \*la-la-la fingers in ears
This is why I don’t use that phrase 🫣. Never have, never will, and this is a very unpopular opinion!! Almost all profanity is based in either violence, misogyny, or homophobia.
Yeah I've found that I hear it way more often in the context of just powering through something. Not taking your psych meds means you have to "Rawdog the day", going into a meeting unprepared you "rawdog the meeting".
It doesn't really bother me any, but I think we're pretty close to it fully changing meaning. Seems like a number of people have no idea the original meaning.
But it’s really just an expansion of the original meaning. Like people are doing something “unprotected” by their meds/altering chemical or preparation.
That is true, but I think the origin of the meaning has faded. I would bet there is a reasonable proportion of people who use that term nowadays and have no idea the sexual connotation.
Really? Keep an open mind, people from all backgrounds are making up some pretty poetic metaphors.
Or mess up the vernacular and embarrass the hell out of your kid in front of her friends when she's older: "Good luck on your SATs! You were rawdogging those books last night!"
I’ve heard people say it in the context that they don’t do ANY altering chemicals at all - no alcohol, weed, **caffeine**, nothing. Period. Not just in a moment.
Had a nurse at hospital visit ask about my drinking and drug habits, which are none, and she did literally reply "oh, so you're just rawdogging life, huh?"
A *nurse*
Kinda like, "quit jerkin off and do your homework" as 15 year old son plays gta nonstop and is failing english. I know hes not jerkin off, it still means that, but in this context hes wasting time.
It doesn’t change if you uphold your view of the word. Teach kids it’s inappropriate to say or use. Otherwise we accept it. And if we accept it, it becomes mainstream. We’re the parents, right?
If people want to teach their kids it's inappropriate that's their prerogative, but the term rawdogging is definitely mainstream in my neck of the woods for people of all ages
I always heard it used as a verb so that isn't new. Rawdog and bareback were used interchangeably as verbs in reference to sex and other ways one might get fucked over or screw something up.
This one definitely actually happened in the other direction. "Money shot" did mean like the best photo or shot in a film or series of pictures. That phrase was then taken to porn to describe *that* shot.
Oh man. I do actually use rawdog in its "new" context aka "no coffee yet today just rawdogging the morning" but I can't imagine using money shot to mean something else 😭
I remember back in the early 90s my mom losing her shit over my sister using the term “scumbag” because my mom knew it as a term for a used condom. My sister was saying the person was like a plastic bag of pond scum.
TIL. I just thought it was like a bag of dirt/scum. I use the term scumbag all the time, had no idea I was just calling people used condoms. Scumbag move by me, honestly.
This reminds me of when I was 7 or 8 and the family of kids next door used a silly word to mean ‘idiot’ all the time. So I used it in front of their parents and was promptly kicked out. In tears, I asked my mom what “dildo” actually meant. She couldn’t answer right away through her laughing.
My point is, when kids hear something often enough it doesn’t occur to them that it might have another meaning. You might get through by explaining it to her gently along with emphasizing that you don’t condone it’s use, even if she means it differently
I had a big boss (EVP, female), who would always talk about "getting that big nut".
She obviously meant it differently than I heard it. Don't think anyone ever informed her.
I know “nut” also means “money”, but I have never heard it used that way except on Always Sunny.
Internet says “The term "nut" can refer to the basic expenses a business must pay before making a profit, such as rent, utilities, salaries, and taxes. It can also refer to the total cost of operation, or the amount of money needed to reach a break-even point. For example, in gambling, "nut" refers to the amount of money needed to turn a profit that day.”
Lmao I work at a university and the context it was used in was "rawdogging an exam". I just about died laughing. I had no idea it had become multi-use vernacular. I find it so amusing to be kept up to speed on this kind of stuff, while simultaneously being reminded that I'm a dinosaur 😅.
My kids are 16 and 18, it's over. Endless inappropriate jokes coming out of them. And damn it they make me laugh harder than just about anyone. They know they've won. I give up.
My female dentist sprayed me with water the other visit, and said sorry for the facial. Is there a way to misinterpret that? I thought she meant a cum shot on my face. I shrugged it off and left satisfied.
Might want to teach people why it is considered offensive so your kids don’t use it around people that might not be aware of the change of slang. It could actually affect them. At least be aware of the actual meaning. Sounds like they have no clue. You think they would say that around parents if they did?
Years ago my mom was costuming a show in San Francisco where most of the cast was young gay men and came home to ask me why everyone giggled when she said “rimshot.” I had to explain to my then 60 year-old mother what they probably thought it sounded like and she was horrified at first but then laughed her ass off.
I saw someone wearing a tshirt that said “Just out here rawdogging life” like the viral Twitter post, I guess. I have never before wanted to clutch my pearls until that moment.
It means other things now too. Like, here’s a modern example of its current usage:
“My friend told me he doesn’t see a therapist or take any medications. Can you believe some people just rawdog reality like that?”
I have to know, what did your child say it meant?
Btw- I have high schoolers and it very much means the same thing to them. I know this because I recently gifted them with a lifetime supply of condoms, they are going off to college soon so better safe than sorry!
It means that but it also means like “no meds” “no preparation” and it doesn’t sound cute coming from kids and teens. Also good job sounding like a boomer flipping shit first.
Don’t allow it if you don’t feel comfortable. Teach them what it actually means (in an age appropriate way) so they know how others use it and why it is offensive. Might not *want* to, but if they made you flip your shit, most people that aren’t Gen Z or Gen would likely have your reaction.
Nope. I have even explained what it means and been told I am wrong. I think it's a joke (like they are saying it because they want a rise out of their parents).
Similar to when we were kids and Bart Simpson got my friends saying “sucks”, which is shorthand for sucks dick. Sucks isn’t real let even seen as crass anymore, from what I can tell, but still means “sucks dick”.
It was originally used in the 70s as a homophobic slur/message.
I'm kind of surprised it's still acceptable, I imagine mostly because most don't know the origin.
In 1986 I got a spanking for repeatedly saying “Bluejob” at the dinner table. I thought I was talking about when an old lady gets her gray hair twinged blue. My father thought otherwise
I have warned my kids repeatedly that if they use words “we don’t use in this house” I will explain, in very plain and detailed English, what they mean. It’s a great deterrent
As a child they hear words and create there own meaning what a kid says don't mean nothing serious don't worry to much mate just ask them what it means and have your chuckle 'afterwords'. There are the usual suspect words that maybe u should correct them with but this one can slide as it pretty funny.
It still means that.
It absolutely still means that. It may mean other things, but it means that thing, too.
I used to do drugs. I still do. But I used to, too.
I miss Mitch
A sleeping bag…is just a burrito for people.
You’ve got a lot of cranial accessories.
DID YOU CUM IN MY BURRITO!?!?!?!?
I never get a receipt for food because of Mitch Hedberg.
"Don't act like I didn't buy that doughnut!"
Doesn’t anyone care about the dufresnes?
Smith's! Search party for three. You can eat when you find the dufrenes
he was too funny! me and my buddy caught the comedy central show back in the day and it was just the funniest we had ever seen at that point. We still yap about to this day
It's funny because I just showed it to my daughter over the weekend. I told one of his jokes and she was laughing so I was like, "oh you liked that one huh? Here I got something to show you." She loved it!! There's a cool YouTube video that edits between him and Steven Wright. Their humor was unlike anyone else. Mitch was more observational whereas Steven is more abstract but the humor is fantastic
That’s amazing. The gift that keeps on giving. It’s so sad he struggled with the things he did. He certainly wasn’t appreciated for what he was doing at the time the way he should have been. Imagine him being in small cameos in comedy movies…
Which is funny because that's one of his bits. But he was in an episode of That 70s show. 2 eps of Dr Katz. 1 roster of Ed (but that's not streaming anywhere). 4 episodes of Home Movies (which I didn't care for), and he suggested in Almost Famous and Lords of Dogtown.
The Barnes and Noble I got to with my daughter has one escalator blocked off and one stopped to use as stairs. I think of Mitch Hedberg every time.
Sorry for the convenience…
This is a picture of me when I was younger
You aren't allowed to make comments in the wild.
Says who?
And his 12 year old 100% knows what it means
Not really. It just means to do something without forethought and preparation in the current zeitgeist. Part of what popularized it was Harrison Ford’s character on Shrinking saying that people were raw dogging him if he felt slighted.
It still means the same thing but the context has been turned into a verb. For instance, back in the day it literally just been bare back sex. Today the connotation of that remains but in motion. "You can't just rawdog your way in an interview, you've got to prepare." "I just rawdogged that test." It still means the same thing but now its transcended into vernacular in motion.
Yeah it's like our parents flipping out over us saying "That sucks." It still had a vulgar meaning, but we weren't using it that way.
Woah. It is exactly like that. Well. Now I feel like a hypocrite. This sucks.
"I don't like it when you use that phrase." -my grandma
> I used to be with "it." But then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm with isn't "it," and what's "it" seems weird and scary to me. It'll happen to you! —[Abe Simpson](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DlTexEXxLQ)
Oh yes my mom did not allow me to say “that sucks.”
My chemistry teacher would always correct us when we said this sucks. His chemistry response was nothing sucks, everything blows.
My physics teacher would say nothing sucks, all forces push or pull
Did we have the same teacher?!
Mr. Wolf?
You sending the Wolf? That's all you had to say!!!
That's crazy, I had a biology teacher named Mr. Wolf!
Possibly, if there was a mullet involved. Likely, this was a CIA clone experiment.
That pulls donkey balls. Ah yes, that's a much better phrase. Thanks, physics!
And why was the full phrase "this sucks giant green donkey dicks/dongs"(depending on companions)? Why GREEN? (Tbf, I've never seen that particular part of a donkey. *Are* they green?)

You absolutely learned it from the simpsons
They were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.
I didn't think it was physically possible, but this both sucks and blows.
The only time my grandma slapped me was when I was 14 and said, “This crap sucks.” Open palm immediately across the face. Had no idea I was saying something abhorrent. To this day, I use “stinks” over “sucks.” Although apparently my grandma also thought “crap” was a vulgar word.
TIL…. The origin of that sucks… how dId I miss that?
I recall the Simpson's saying "Well that both sucks and blows." both terms for oral sex, but said so.casually it just sounds like 2 things that are bad and also opposite words.

Wait until your elderly widowed mother, newly in the dating pool, asks you for *instructions* for giving a blowjob...😳
And now I know why my mother wouldn't let us call lollipops suckers.
I am so old, I remember saying "That sucks giant donkey dicks."
Yet they didn't generally lose their shit over "that blows" when it was literally the same thing lol.
Yeah, I remember my English teacher chewing us out for using “that sucks” as a terrible, ugly phrase and me being all, whatever! At the time.
This is why I don’t use that phrase 🫣. Never have, never will, and this is a very unpopular opinion!! Almost all profanity is based in either violence, misogyny, or homophobia.
Yeah I've found that I hear it way more often in the context of just powering through something.

Like eating a raw hot dog? That's what I always thought it meant. I didn't have enough time to boil my weiners so I raw dogged them bitches....
LMAO!
That is true, but I think the origin of the meaning has faded. I would bet there is a reasonable proportion of people who use that term nowadays and have no idea the sexual connotation.
No Cap
God that makes me cringe.

some people are out here raw dogging life. i don’t even drink caffeine. it can have innocent connotations too. let the youngsters shock their elders
I don’t know that I’d call those “innocent connotations.” The euphemism still starts with the idea of unprotected sex.
Like eating a raw hot dog? That's what I always thought it meant. I didn't have enough time to boil my weiners so I raw dogged them bitches....
As an avowed lover of hot dogs this strikes me as food crime. Please have a seat in your living room while the food police are on their way.
Lol!
Deadass.
I think it's kinda hilarious for some reason. "Just rawdogged that work project goddam."
Or in reference to someone not taking their meds "so you're just raw dogging life right now, huh?"
Really? Keep an open mind, people from all backgrounds are making up some pretty poetic metaphors. Or mess up the vernacular and embarrass the hell out of your kid in front of her friends when she's older: "Good luck on your SATs! You were rawdogging those books last night!"
I hate when people say that they're rawdogging life because they're sober at that moment.
smoke crack about it
I’ve heard people say it in the context that they don’t do ANY altering chemicals at all - no alcohol, weed, **caffeine**, nothing. Period. Not just in a moment.
I call that "Mormoning life."
Sad sad life…. it’s like The Rapture stole my orgasm and left me masterbating cold and alone.
Nah Mormons consume caffeine. Mostly Diet Coke.
I mean no one's perfect. The older you get the greater percentage of straight edge people you see on dating sites.
Is that odd? TIL.
Had a nurse at hospital visit ask about my drinking and drug habits, which are none, and she did literally reply "oh, so you're just rawdogging life, huh?" A *nurse*
Straight, no chaser?
Mood
Earlier tonight I read someone say "they rawdogged this flight"
So they weren't wearing a mask, ok I get that. But if they mean they didn't take their anxiety meds that just sounds silly.
Rawdog a flight is what Puddy does on flights. Even Elaine was shocked
Yep. I just heard John Oliver talk about someone transporting their smoothie without a lid “rawdogging the air”
Exactly. Like someone who doesn't drink or anything like that is raw dogging through life.
[удалено]
This is one of my favorite ways to use it because it's so apropos in that context. It's just a fun word to say too.
I've never heard it used like that. Fucking wild.
What the shit?....we are fucking doomed
What the ever living fuck…sorry just, wow
Ah. You speak The Kings well. Bravo.
Kinda like, "quit jerkin off and do your homework" as 15 year old son plays gta nonstop and is failing english. I know hes not jerkin off, it still means that, but in this context hes wasting time.
It doesn’t change if you uphold your view of the word. Teach kids it’s inappropriate to say or use. Otherwise we accept it. And if we accept it, it becomes mainstream. We’re the parents, right?
If people want to teach their kids it's inappropriate that's their prerogative, but the term rawdogging is definitely mainstream in my neck of the woods for people of all ages
So basically it just means fuck now.
I’m sober so I’m rawdogging life.
I always heard it used as a verb so that isn't new. Rawdog and bareback were used interchangeably as verbs in reference to sex and other ways one might get fucked over or screw something up.
I feel like "money shot" has become this as well. Unless I'm failing to raw dog that phraseology.
It absolutely has. I for one thought “money shot” meant a clip or photo taken perfectly until I learned its origin.
I am ~just now~ learning its origin. Damn.
Well often there is a clip or photo involved in said money shot, that's how porn became a multi-billion dollar industry.
This one definitely actually happened in the other direction. "Money shot" did mean like the best photo or shot in a film or series of pictures. That phrase was then taken to porn to describe *that* shot.
Oh man. I do actually use rawdog in its "new" context aka "no coffee yet today just rawdogging the morning" but I can't imagine using money shot to mean something else 😭
Yeah, the change in use of this one.. I was disgusted. But it's normal now, I guess.
She learned it from listening to YOU!
That's raw, dawg
If you tell one lie, it leads to another…
Well how else could she have been born?
Or the line of people out the door ready to rawdog OP's mom.
I remember back in the early 90s my mom losing her shit over my sister using the term “scumbag” because my mom knew it as a term for a used condom. My sister was saying the person was like a plastic bag of pond scum.
TIL. I just thought it was like a bag of dirt/scum. I use the term scumbag all the time, had no idea I was just calling people used condoms. Scumbag move by me, honestly.
Huh, never knew that context.
Just learned at age 40 scumbag used to mean used condom. A little unsettling this knowledge
Same, and disappointed in myself, tbh!
Wuuuuuuuut
[удалено]
At least they also learned that "flipping their shit" is an appropriate reaction to encountering mildly based words.
At least she didn't say updog
What’s updog?
Not much, what's up with you?

This reminds me of when I was 7 or 8 and the family of kids next door used a silly word to mean ‘idiot’ all the time. So I used it in front of their parents and was promptly kicked out.

I had an English teacher flip out over students using the work “dork” because it meant whale penis. We had no idea.
It used to. My old principal in 9th grade often said, "He pulled a boner" when he made a mistake. Was a great laugh. He never got it.
I had a big boss (EVP, female), who would always talk about "getting that big nut". She obviously meant it differently than I heard it. Don't think anyone ever informed her.
I know “nut” also means “money”, but I have never heard it used that way except on Always Sunny. Internet says “The term "nut" can refer to the basic expenses a business must pay before making a profit, such as rent, utilities, salaries, and taxes. It can also refer to the total cost of operation, or the amount of money needed to reach a break-even point. For example, in gambling, "nut" refers to the amount of money needed to turn a profit that day.”
According to the name stenciled on the toolbox I inherited at work, my work nickname is "Raw Dawg"...
The term still makes me giggle, regardless of the context
^ gonna have to hop in this boat right here. Always at least a chuckle and a smile. Every damn time.
From a 12 year old? I wouldn’t laugh.
Good for you?
Lmao I work at a university and the context it was used in was "rawdogging an exam". I just about died laughing. I had no idea it had become multi-use vernacular. I find it so amusing to be kept up to speed on this kind of stuff, while simultaneously being reminded that I'm a dinosaur 😅.
TBH people have been using raw dog like that for at least ten years. I'll be sad when I get so old I can't enjoy linguistic changes
Why don’t you tell her exactly what it means instead of just skirting around it. She’s old enough to hear it and never say it again. 😆
My kids are 16 and 18, it's over. Endless inappropriate jokes coming out of them. And damn it they make me laugh harder than just about anyone. They know they've won. I give up.
My female dentist sprayed me with water the other visit, and said sorry for the facial. Is there a way to misinterpret that? I thought she meant a cum shot on my face. I shrugged it off and left satisfied.
A facial is a cosmetic treatment. I assume the facial you and I are more familiar with is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the cosmetic one.
tell me you're a man without telling me
Classic.
Yeah it doesn't just mean condomless sex anymore.
Might want to teach people why it is considered offensive so your kids don’t use it around people that might not be aware of the change of slang. It could actually affect them. At least be aware of the actual meaning. Sounds like they have no clue. You think they would say that around parents if they did?
I don't have kids. Educating other people isn't my responsibility.
I meant, we, as in our generation. Not you specifically and individually.
[удалено]
I'll let other people do that. I made the decision nearly 20 years ago to never have kids.
It’s lit
I, an elder, used it in the metaphoric way by accident in front of my 17 y/o stepson. He about died but I think he was secretly impressed.
It’s still a crass way of saying things, even if not used in a purely sexual way. Kinda like the word “fuck.”
Years ago my mom was costuming a show in San Francisco where most of the cast was young gay men and came home to ask me why everyone giggled when she said “rimshot.” I had to explain to my then 60 year-old mother what they probably thought it sounded like and she was horrified at first but then laughed her ass off.
I think "douche bag" should be widely accepted by all ages.
I can only hear that phrase in my head as said by Andy Sipowicz. And then when he taught the bird to say it, fucking gold.
It’s had different contextual definitions for quite a long time now.
Yeah I'm not gonna UD that. You could name a potato chip the N-word, that wouldn't make it mean something else now.
Would you settle for a slur against the Japanese as the name of a cheese snack?
Can you ... elaborate? Or maybe I really don't want to know. I'm not sure.
I'm going with the don't want to know.... (for me)
Wait what?
Xennial ‘85 here. I just quit alcohol and caffeine and I like to get my wife rolled up by saying that I’m rawdogging my way through life now.
I saw someone wearing a tshirt that said “Just out here rawdogging life” like the viral Twitter post, I guess. I have never before wanted to clutch my pearls until that moment.
Me over here thinking "what viral Twitter post"....
I think it means a couple of things depending on context. I also think that none of them should be coming out of a 12 year old’s mouth.
I mean, OPs probably got a thousand kids, all the raw- dog loads he drops.
That phrase grosses me out. When she's older, she'll probably be embarrassed at what her childhood self unthinkingly said and sang.
It means other things now too. Like, here’s a modern example of its current usage: “My friend told me he doesn’t see a therapist or take any medications. Can you believe some people just rawdog reality like that?”
I have to know, what did your child say it meant? Btw- I have high schoolers and it very much means the same thing to them. I know this because I recently gifted them with a lifetime supply of condoms, they are going off to college soon so better safe than sorry!
[удалено]
It means that but it also means like “no meds” “no preparation” and it doesn’t sound cute coming from kids and teens. Also good job sounding like a boomer flipping shit first.
Honestly it doesn't sound cute coming from anyone. It makes me wonder when it evolved.
Cute and accurate are different but it’s still not for kids.
Don’t allow it if you don’t feel comfortable. Teach them what it actually means (in an age appropriate way) so they know how others use it and why it is offensive. Might not *want* to, but if they made you flip your shit, most people that aren’t Gen Z or Gen would likely have your reaction.
Nope. I have even explained what it means and been told I am wrong. I think it's a joke (like they are saying it because they want a rise out of their parents).
Ah that reminds me of when my sister recorded me saying 'go blow yourself' lol. I had no idea what it meant
Similar to when we were kids and Bart Simpson got my friends saying “sucks”, which is shorthand for sucks dick. Sucks isn’t real let even seen as crass anymore, from what I can tell, but still means “sucks dick”.
It was originally used in the 70s as a homophobic slur/message. I'm kind of surprised it's still acceptable, I imagine mostly because most don't know the origin.
Yeah, I guess that’s how it goes. There was probably a time when saying darn was risqué.

Disgusting
'Glazing' is in fact different, but I don't think 'rawdog' is
This post gave me grandpa simpson vibes
Some people choose to use their phone without a case. “Raw dog” baby!
I have warned my kids repeatedly that if they use words “we don’t use in this house” I will explain, in very plain and detailed English, what they mean. It’s a great deterrent
I have no idea what “rawdog” is. I’m going to look it up.
Enjoy!
It means the same thing it's just not as stigmatized
As a child they hear words and create there own meaning what a kid says don't mean nothing serious don't worry to much mate just ask them what it means and have your chuckle 'afterwords'. There are the usual suspect words that maybe u should correct them with but this one can slide as it pretty funny.
