They sell t-shirts with various refernces to "The Bunghole" (e.g. "I got it at the Bunghole").
Do they have a shirt that says, "I got shitfaced at the Bunghole"?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A bunghole is not a cornhole.
But can your cornhole at Bunghole?
the Salem area has a mini-chain of package stores called Bunghole Liquors.
the one in Peabody plays a crucial role as a landmark when I give directions.
ION, is "broach" a particularly uncommon or advanced vocabulary word? I used it in an email with a co-worker ("we should broach the subject to X...") and she had no idea what it meant. Am I a total snob for being bewildered about her not knowing this?
"Broach" is one of the many perfectly good words that I use knowing that most people will not know what I mean.
I am a snob, and I like it that way.
I know "broach". I use "broach". I have never gotten the deer in the headlights response.
Am I a total snob for being bewildered about her not knowing this?
Hold firm! Stand your ground against the dumbing down of the language!

I don't find it an uncommon word, but then, sometimes there's just a word that some people have never come across, or haven't come across in a particular context.
Broach is a word I would expect people with English as a first language to know. I would avoid it when communicating with people I knew had limited English. But a co-worker I wouldn't think twice about using it.
There are words at times that we just miss learning for some reason. Of course I love when I learn a shiny new one.
Wait a minute there! Isn't a broach a thing a lady wears?
