    Never heard the word being used in any other meaning than to get someone fired. But it means kick or thrust, so I guess it makes sense.

    Its been a long time since you guys were in England! Meanings have probably drifted since then. :)

      It does involve a lot of thrusting, so it doesn't seem to to have drifted that much. A sidenote: It was the Norwegians and Danes that went to the British isles. The Swedish vikings went east to found Russia. Rus is a word of Finnish origin that designate the Swedes.

                Depends what you want to do. But I think they were named by others.

                  From where the most spoken word FUCK came in existence. In Encient England people could not have sex without the king's Permission, So to have a baby they had to get the King's consent to have sex. They were given card to hang on the door while doing it. It is said "Fornication Under Consent of the King(FUCK)" thus the word FUCK came. I think CP doesn't have validation of word in Subject line

                        She certainly looks like it would get stuck in there once you put it in.

                          No it didn't. This was never a law; the king would spend his time doing nothing else other than granting this if it had ever been the case. Similarly, the English language has changed considerably with words evolving and spellings solidifying over a great period of time, it's highly unlikely that those words would have been used. Indeed, variations of this word and the C word appeared in Chaucer.
