Well they don't do they, unless they are a scientific experimental shut in, or something. It's an amalgamation. But one which you obviously don't like! Which is fairy muff.

Speaking of the Profanisaurus, and in keeping with the thread title :
STAMPED BAT /euph/
One of the most horrific kinds of ladypart imaginable; a bodily treasure that resembles nothing so much as a flying rodent that has been subjected to a heavy shoeing. A snatch that not even Ozzy Osbourne would consider eating.
"Nostalgia was powerless to resist. His eyes bored into hers like zirconium-coated drill bits. His muscular arms enfolded her body as she felt herself being whisked away on a souffle of passion. Genlty, he lowered her blooners and a thrill of forbidden excitement shot through her loins as she felt his hot Latin breath beginning to creep down her crab ladder towards her altar of Venus. But it was not to be. "Bloody Nora", shouted Sexus Empiricus from between her legs. "I'm not licking that out. It looks like a f**king stamped bat." (from the Lady and the 2nd Century Pyrrhonic Skepticist Philosopher by Barbara Cartland)

I like the expression Fairy Muff.
Ew is something nobody said in this country 15 years ago. It has been learned from teen American shows. I have no problem with people using language from whatever culture or society they want, although it doesn't take a linguist to see that a British person saying Ew is not the same thing as an American saying Ew. Ew is their word for our Ugh or Urgh. Because we have different letter sounds and speak in different way with our lips we have evolved a different sound to suggest disgust. Therefore a British person saying Ew is being imitative as this sound doesn't come naturally as a sound suggesting disgust. If you say that it does come naturally to you, that is merely because you have picked it up from American English and your friends recognise its meaning, unless you speak with an American accent.

Or Northern Irish. The two can sound extremely similar given the right sentence.
Death?

It's military slang - specifically RAF slang. 'Bullshit' is making exaggerated claims about your ability to hit the target - bull. So references to 'bovine excrement' and miming sniffing shit are entirely misguided.
A similar misinterpretation applies to 'crystal clear' which people seem to think applies to glass. Of course crystal glass isn't any clearer than non-crystal glass, the expression derives from crystal radio sets which had much clearer sound than non crystal ones.
Ah, QI.
