Perhaps to you 'mong' means that?
To others it is different, all depends on how nasty we want to inerpret it.
There is a word banned from AccyWeb it means a long sharp stick, a large fresh water fish, it is the Surname of many innocent people.
Why is it banned? For some reason someone went overly P.C. And used their power to say that P-I-K-E must not be used on the site, no doubt rather than think and return this word to the English language he/she/it will issue me with a warning for avoiding the swear checker, over the top? Ridiculous? P.C. Gone mad?
Of course it is, it was banned because the word is sometimes associated with gippo's, (can I say gippo's on site? Only the swear checker knows, if I can, why can't I say p-i-k-e?).
