Where did the word “poop” originate? This answer debunks Snopes conclusion for S.H.I.T
Snopes.com has been ridiculed for not being a true depository/disclosure of “The final say” on things. Testing Snopes for fun, I queried with an etymology version of the origin of the word ‘Shit’ not included in their analysis. I felt I had found that the acronym describing “Ship high in transit”, or S.H.I.T., was plausible in that manure caused a major problem when the product was stored beneath within lower decks which Snopes discounts. When the issue of exploding ships was solved by transporting the bundles in open air on the top deck, it made sense that the one place it went was to the highest deck, the POOP. This also makes sense as in our modern day taming of foul language from their offensiveness when describing bad situations.
Snopes never acknowledged my inquiry describing the rather obvious word connection that shit = poop. As a result Snopes declares the word origin to be FALSE. Since The Snopes etymological failure report did not address the word poop that is the clue to the possible deck shit had to be transported on. Have you formed your opinion now?
“This sorry piece of codswallop about exploding ships seems to have begun it’s internet life in February, 2002… we’ll spare you the [internet leg pulls], as the fanciful stories listed can easily be debunked as the product of someone’s wild imaginings through linguistic means.” - Snopes.com
Is Snopes too pooped to produce from logic?
