I was always told it was a whale penis. Wait a minute.....I remember back in elementary school a 'dude' was some infected hair on an elephants bum.... oh that's right- dork is whale penis. My apologies for not only my lack of correct information but also my icky tainting of the thread, all this talk of penises and bums. also must American girls melt over British accents. (I just so happen to be one of them)
