An alternate term for the perineum that I heard on a Saturday Night Live sketch once is ABC -- anus-ball connector. I don't know how popular it is. I find, in Urban Dictionary, a definition that gives as synonyms "grundle" and "nifkin," neither of which heretofore known to me, but both of which having very good presences in Urban Dictionary.

Last person I recall hearing "taint" from in conversation was wielding an ultrasound wand at a clinic.
