1 CRAP
дрянь, вранье, что-то бесполезное и бессмысленное.В общем-то, дерьмо, только с замечательной исторической ассоциацией. Это память о Sir John Crapper, английском изобретателе смывного туалета. И глагол есть - (*) to crap, в прямом смысле, грубое выражение. На самом деле счастливый изобретатель обессмертил свое имя дважды, и одним и тем же достижением. "John", т. е. унитаз, назван тоже в его честь, но по первому имени. Почему у нас, в великом и могучем, нет глаголов типа "закулибить" или "уленинить"? Может ни один русский изобретатель столько пользы не принес трудовому народу?
