Felgercarb (TOS)

For information on the brand of toothpaste in the Re-imagined Series, see Felgercarb (RDM).

Felgercarb is an euphemism for "crap" in the Colonial vernacular.

The appeal of the word "felgercarb" would seem to extend across the lines of culture and species, as Lucifer uses the term several times in "The Young Lords."

Notes

• An alternate spelling is "feldergarb".
• According to story editor Terrence McDonnell, the word was created by Glen A. Larson.
