Going to Stanford

Generally used to describe urination; however, "going to Stanford" is increasingly popular as a euphemism for defecation.

Origin: Conceived as a method to simultaneously mock the concept of school rivalry and show distaste for opponents of increasing social welfare, "going to Stanford" received pop culture status after acts bearing its name were committed at the university's graduate school of business in 2007.
"Sometimes I think kidney stones are God's punishment for those who take going to Stanford for granted."

Word of the Day on August 25, 2026
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
