Engineering term defining any kind of crapppy material / alloy that is not up to the job it's supposed to do.
This includes also the material used plastic parts often used in automotive for knobs and handles that will snap or shatter during normal use.
The french translation is Merdanium
-"Crap, the block of the new engine prototype cracked"
-"What grade of shitanium is it made of?"
The practice of allowing one who has taken a massively loud and malodorous dump the dignity of leaving the bathroom stall without being identified. May apply not only to saving the individual the embarrassment following said dump, but also during said dump. In that case, an individual washing their hands or urinating at a urinal who witnesses another person entering a stall will complete their urination and (hopefully subsequent handwashing) in a timely manner as to allow the shitter the opportunity to defecate with the full force necessary to empty their bowels.
After returning to work from lunch at a local Mexican restaurant, I appreciate that the guy that entered the bathroom during my explosive shitfest left quickly, granting me shitonymity and freedom from embarrassment.
Of course, the hot girl seated by the bathroom heard the whole damn drum solo and stared at me as I returned to my cubicle in shame...or is it pride?
