(Granted, I have no problem with the Australian form of the word.)
Yea, some words just are not very kosher today.

There are two parts to that. Language has been hi jacked by MTV and meanings have greatly increased with sexual innuendo. We have another ordeal called Politically correct speech. Many ordinary expressions are now taboo.

I agree. Our language has been hijacked and I'm sure that MTV has something to do with it. But, I'm also sure Comedy Central, Disney and our late night talks shows - David Letterman - are also part and parcel. It's society collectively, IMO.
