Personally, I don't care what the British think and I definitely don't validate any of their opinions.

I'd say that "twat" is more of a dysphemism.

I don't think I've ever heard an American use twat or oval office. I always consider those british words

This is all I know about the proper pronunciation of twat:Bill Bryson posted:The poet Robert Browning caused considerable consternation by including the word twat in one of his poems, thinking it an innocent term. The work was Pippa Passes, written in 1841 and now remembered for the line "God's in His heaven, all's right with the world." But it also contains this disconcerting passage: In other words, absolutely nothing apparently

Bryson is extremely unreliable yeah, but I really wanted it to be true, and it seems like it really really is, and even funnier when you read where Browning got it from:quote:"Twat" was and remains vulgar slang for a woman's external genitalia. But in 1886, Frederick James Furnivall, a contributor to the Oxford English Dictionary, asked the poet for his source, and Browning replied "that he got the word from the Royalist rhymes entitled 'Vanity of Vanities,' on Sir Harry Vane's picture"[22] in which Vane is lampooned thus: The poem was published in 1841, the error publicly pointed out in 1888, Browning died in 1889. Coincidence or complications from extreme embarrassment?

There's no way Elizabeth Barrett Browning didn't immediately tell him what that meant.

It’s just reidentifying the hodge podge of Air Force, Army, Navy, and DoD folks who already worked on missiles and spy satellites and silos and poo poo as a single agency. Air Force Space Command was bigger than all of NASA.
