I've also read books where "ourself" was used - completely seriously. Ugh.
Really, my main objection to the "word" shat is that I think it sounds ugly and annoys the hell out of me.
While we're on the subject of words (and their definitions), here' s something else for y'all to chew on: Men aren't "virgins."   |

Shat is not used much here - I think it's more of a British thing. But it is a word.
