That's fair. My Latin is non-existent, and I clearly was too eager to look at example source instead of reading the description. I'll take my criticism and walk away.

And yet it sounds like a thicc ass.

I confess to being quite amazed that you saw an innuendo somewhere I didn't.

Yes, but the name choice was quite intentional and probably giggle inducing. This is about as toilet humor as it can get.

According to the Classical Latin pronunciation I learned in school, this is "ploom-boom" rather than "plum-bum."

I wonder if your comment says more about how you choose to see the name rather than any inherent meaning.

Personally, I only see it as the old name for lead. Interesting to see how others are wired.

I guess if you've never learned about the word 'plumbing' before?
