cullion (kŭl′yən) noun

This is an archaic word; I got it from the "Create Your Own Shakespearean Insults" book my sister gave me.

It's refreshing to know that male anatomy has been used as an insult for so long and around the world. lol. Seriously though, nice word, and not the entomology that I'd expect!

btw, I don't know how you watch that cartoon, I've tried several times and...not my speed at all and not really "Back to The Future"...whatever it is...I definitely don't get it.

Heh, yeah, Rick and Morty isn't everyone's cup of tea. Which is probably a good thing.
