CW: drawing of a human skeleton
(since we have emojis of skeletons I guess I don't need to provide a CW but strictly speaking that is a representation of a human corpse which should have a CW so I'm just being cautious)
So yeah, it started with this picture, or specifically Luke Correia's voice-over of it posted in early 2021. As I remember it, I inexplicably misinterpreted "had die" as a clipping of "had diarrhea" — probably because the sentence was implying death by foodborne illness, was preceded by some scatological terms, and I had at that point only recently learned "drop trou" as a clipping of "drop one's trousers", so I was already "primed" to look for similar clippings.
I soon realized that I had misinterpreted the meaning, and "had die" was simply intended as a funny way of saying "died" — but I was still amused by the idea of clipping "have diarrhea" to just "have die", and so I found myself saying "boyyoass how I had die over some [insert food I ate earlier]" to myself in a Skeletor-type voice any time I had that type of night. From there "die" (later respelled as "di", and often in the form "mad di") quickly became my preferred term for loose or liquid stool in most contexts, since it was more humorous and indirect than most other terms for a phenomenon I think we can all agree is a bit gross to talk about.
When you're sliding into first and you feel something burst
Hahahah I didn't know the reference but I do know how to operate a search engine
From now on, i will refer to gonorrhea as just "go" and see what happens. I will also totally not regret this when i have my routine STI test coming up soon.
Say "the shit" and no-one bats an eye
Say "the shits" and everyone loses their minds
among family I say the full "diarrhea" because the word is too funny to us and we're very immature. I often use it as a verb like, "it looked like somebody diarrhea'd all over the place" or when using it as a noun, I pretend like it's singular, so that one might say, "She was doing diarrheas all afternoon."
my mom hates this, but my sister and nephew are fully on board for it.
"Diarrhea" actually pluralizes like "attorneys general" — diars rhea
that's powerful knowledge. now I will seem less of a rube when I visit Downton Abbey and have a few unscheduled blowouts.
