How prevalent is "sit bone" as a common term for ischial tuberosity? I've never heard it used outside the centre, although a quick google suggests it's a biking term.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hive mind--what do people know about terrorist watch lists? There is more than one, right? And are they all public? Has anyone had to be checked against ot for employment? Can a civilian check it?

Never heard it, ita. Same thing as tailbone, I guess?
Robin, I'm not sure any of the watch lists are public. My recollection is you mostly find out you're on the TSA one when you get booted off a plane. And I highly doubt we even know about all of them.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I've heard both sit bone and seat bone -- not everywhere, but in enough contexts that people seem to get what's being talked about.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
This weekend, I'm scoping out a town I may decide to move to, doing laundry, and possibly listing stuff on eBay. Also, napping.
I have heard of the "sit bone" but I didn't know there really was one.

cereal: My understanding of watch lists matches Brenda's. Nobody can check them, and you don't know until you're spanked. Cocksuckers.

I've only heard "sit bone" used in yoga classes.

That bike needs to be in the next Batman movie.
I looked at someone funny for using the term "sit bone" and he defended himself by saying it was the real term. I grant, rolls off the tongue a hell of a lot easier than ischial tuberosity. But it's nowhere near as fun to type.

To be fair, I don't think I have ever heard the term "ischial tuberosity" at all.
