Hmm, I seem to have missed those. In quite the other direction, back when
John Wayne Bobbit had his 15 mins. of fame, I meant to see that video, but
inertia or better sense prevailed, and it's now No. 297 on the must-see
list.

No problem. Amazing, since mine operates out of a VERY religio-conservative
burg.
More odd plurals: stewardi (esp. M/F airline ___, "coffee, tea or me?"),
waitri [wejytraj] PC plural of waiter/waitress.
And a friend of mine coined, or passed along, "wood wose" ( as in "the
native wood wose wild") for what the gay world now calls a twink. The
plural was "woodwi" [wUdwij].
