Swamp Donkey
December 1, 2005 | 20 Comments
While watching an episode of the British version of The Office, Dawn and Keith are having a discussion about “bum bags” and he explains to her that in the states they are called fanny packs. He then explains this is because “fanny” in the states means your arse and not your “minge.”
At this point I needed to know what the heck “minge” was. Turns out “minge” is a synonym in Britain for vagina. On the site where I found that, they also list “minjer” as a term meaning “really ugly woman” also synonymous with “swamp donkey”.
I love it. I’ve never heard anyone be called a swamp donkey but that’s the funniest sounding insult I’ve heard in a long time.
As a side note, while Google image searching for swamp donkey, I turned up a label for Swamp Donkey Cider. If I follow the synonyms backwards, I’m truly frightened about the secret ingredient…
