bilby What?! Next you'll be telling me rodeo clowns aren't laughing gas in jodhpurs. Dec 21, 2010
yarb There's nothing funny about funny cars, bilby, and well you know it. Dec 20, 2010
bilby C'mon yarb, it's humorous like, uhm, funny cars. Yanno? Dec 20, 2010
ruzuzu Huh. According to Wikipedia, William Shatner was born March 22, 1931, in Montreal. Dec 18, 2010
yarb FWIW, it's not humorous anymore. At least in the UK, it's standard past tense of shit. Totally normal. Dec 18, 2010
yarb Well fuck me. Dec 18, 2010
yarb How recently formed is shat? I didn't think it was recent at all. Dec 18, 2010
ruzuzu I find it endearing only when it's used as a nickname for William Shatner. See The Shat. Nov 13, 2010
pterodactyl The OED defines "shat" as "an obsolete term of endearment used in addressing an Irish person", and gives the example "Come hither shat, are you an Irish mon?"
Maybe it's just me, but I don't really find it all that endearing... Nov 13, 2010
pterodactyl I agree with milos. It is fascinating. I wonder how recently it emerged, and whether it's contemporaneous with "spat" (as the past tense of "spit"). Nov 13, 2010
marky i find shit fascinating too. Nov 13, 2010
milosrdenstvi I find this word to be a fascinating example of a recently-formed irregular verb. Nov 13, 2010

darqueau why are you asking me this BTW?
I'm in no condition to respond coherently. Aug 2, 2008
darqueau you really want to know pro...?
I've been out dancing all night with hot boys (and girls)...!

darqueau Dr. Shat Aug 2, 2008
yarb I was given a suppository and told to keep it in for 20 minutes. I got cramp up the arse and shat after 5 minutes.

linguista88 It does make sense that it follows the pattern of sit and sat. My question is why doesn't 'fit' follow the same pattern? I can definitely see the relationship between 'fit' and 'fat'. Sep 18, 2007
reesetee How about "shot"?
Wait...never mind. Feb 21, 2007
chained_bear "Falsely formed"? I think it sounds way better than shitted, don't you? Feb 21, 2007
stpeter Supposedly, the past tense of shit, falsely formed on the model of sit and sat. But it's amusing nonetheless. Feb 21, 2007
