I've taken this up with several Murkns ...

I think this has been covered before... but I see a wide range of spellings for 'Merkin' on this forum.

So... the definitive spelling is... as I have done it above... MERKIN.

Reason? "Merkin" is a real word... sounding a bit like the way a lot of them mumble "American".

So what is a "Merkin"? Answer - it is a pubic wig!

So not only are you taking the P out of pronunciation, you are also being far more insulting than you realise!

While I appreciate others being concerned for my safety, I also appreciate not having been a teenager with this neurosurgeon of a father!! How awfully traumatic (not head injurywise...but on the knees, I'd be absolutely crouching in the footwell in the hope that no one from school saw me!).

That's what fullface helmets with iridium visors were invented for
