Old urban myth: Pugwash (really really really old animated series),
the hands on the ship were 'Master Bates' deckhand 'Seaman Stains' and 'Roger the cabin boy'
and then there's the since adopted meanings for Pugwash[^]

Kids today have nothing on the fun we had way back then, sadly some bleeding heart moron (oops) invented: 'PC.' (No not the IBM thing)
Can't even be a proper grumpy old man with these *&^* newfangled rules.
