Maybe from watching all those 1940s movies on Turner Classic Movies?

"when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much, he sticks his meatpole in her cocktrough."
I used to work with a guy whose language was fairly salty, and who had no social filter. The team were "bonding" in a pub, and he used the c-word. Our sole female team member objected, to which he responded "What about -" and proceeded to reel off over 30 variations. Most were fairly obvious, but one...

I am irresistibly reminded of the Mighty Mighty LPD song.
Mighty, mighty lpd
mighty mighty lpd,
carries the print jobs to liberty,
overcoming the evil printcap,
with a jaunty daemon bitch-slap
talking with brethren all over the world,
to whom our print jobs could well be hurled,
provided postscript code doesnt gag 'em,
forcing the use of lprm
piping files to kingdom come
and just maybe actually printing some
we know our output is laying somwheres
and we hope it ain't in lpd-errs
mighty, mighty lpd
doing it's job so faithfully
sad that it's such a loner
damn! the printer's out of toner
