Sir Carlton's definitions
Refers to hepatitis in general. It is an antiquated expression of obscure origin. It's not well known what the cud part is. It seems very out of place. Indeed, HEPA means liver. Hepatitis is an inflammation of the liver, not any kind of genitals. However, it can be sexually transmitted. So that loosely connects it to the word cunt. The additional T in hepatittis is a mispronunciation by lay people who weren't well versed in medical terms. So what is known about the expression is that there were at least two drifts from its original form. Indeed it was like a game of telephone. Now it is regarded as a very shocking phrase using the word cunt. What's more, it makes no distinction about a person's gender. Men and women alike can contract hepatittis of the cunt
I cannot go in that public bathroom. The toilets are filthy. That'll give you hepatittis of the cunt.

Get the Hepatittis of the cunt mug.Nonsense talk, meaningless language, something said or written in an overly complex, incomprehsible or incoherent way.
Apparently the first known attestation was in a memo by US Representative (Texas) Maury Maverick dated March 30, 1944, banning "gobbledygook language". Apparently coined in imitation of the sounds made by a turkey.
Mr. Maury Maverick was, incidentally, the grandson of lawyer and politician Samuel Maverick, whose behaviour regarding his cattle inspired the term maverick ("offbeat").
The date of the memo is also interesting, because it was four days following the birth of illustrious diva Diana Ross.
Another noteworthy use of the term gobbledygook was in Judge Judy's 60 Minutes interview in 1993, before she got her own show. She said that people who do the right thing are not afraid of her, saying that they are afraid if they come in and do the routine thing, which is to give her a lot of rhetoric and gobbledygook. It is therefore, quite possible, that the word may have been heard on the original Judge Judy, and possibly Judy Justice. Judge Judy was also born 1942, making her a baby whenever Maverick used the term gobbledygook in the aforementioned memorandum.

Get the Gobbledygook mug.1972-1977 CBS. Catch phrase used by Aunt Esther directed at Fred Sanford in response to his insults, frequently referencing all that ugly on her face. She will exclaim, "Why ya ole fish eyed fool!". Whilst the fish eyed meaning may be obscure, though has been used in the 60's or earlier, it may be speculated that Esther was telling Fred why he don't look in the mirror.

Get the Fish eyed fool mug.Plural of joist is joists. Due to the similarity with the mostly girls' given name, some people dumb it down, by humour or perhaps ignorance, and say joyce/joyces.
What size steel joyces I need for my floors and ceilings? I'm using steel and masonry to build my house?

Get the Joyces mug.The vagina; this dates back at least to 1990, the Golden Girls episode Blanche Delivers in which Sophia comes up with the euphemism oonie.
Not to be confused with Ooni, a brand of portable wood pellet pizza ovensProbably coincidental in that Sophia is Sicilian and Ooni makes a pizza oven, but the brand name has its roots in Africa.

Get the Oonie mug.Often a term for all dogs. There's a growing number of people who are fed up with dog culture and how society pushed these dangerous shit beasts onto people as something adorable or in any way desirable. Shit beast could also refer to any animal, usually large, that one finds offensive because the bigger the animal, the bigger the crap. So a horse may be considered by many a shit beast.
I hate dogs and horses. Them shit beasts make me sick. Yet people keep putting dogs in our faces trying to convince us that they're cute and loyal when nothing about them is desirable. A horse is another shit beast. Equine therapy is so oxymoronic. How can a shit beast be therapeutic?

Get the Shit beast mug.A, second to none. In the US, 220 is thought of as high power, so something being called 220 means high test, quality, etc.
B, a 240 volt mains circuit. Early on in house wiring, 110 and 220 were often used. The US upgraded to a 120/240 standard, though still commonly referred to as 110 and 240 respectively. In Europe many times even recently the standard was 220 with many countries adopting a new 230 standard, so may be colloquially referred to as 220
