Why are a lot of people on here called Dog something or other?

In the Oz navy, the slang term for common sense was 'common dog fuk', often shortened to CDF. Same in Canuck?

Something to do with being English and living in Thailand.

Take DD and Marmite for example, bit scary that relationship as its bordering on incest.

no, it has a very specific meaning in canada.

fuck the dog

verb

predominantly Canadian expression meaning to do absolutely nothing of redeeming value, or to avoid work. Can also be used to describe someone who never does anything of redeeming value (i.e., he's a real dog-fucker). Polite variants include screwed the pooch or ducked the fog. Also used by French Canadians as "fourrer le chien."

Used in workplace connotations, it means doing something that is not related to your workplace responsibilities, something done on company time for your own purposes (also referred to as "screwing the pooch") - if one is profiting from the activity, the expressions changes to "screwing the pooch and selling the puppies"

It used on the rigs daily.
If someone calls you a dog foker it means your a lazy cnut, as for benign a seal basher word I don't think so.
Any way let you have that one as you usless cnuts need every bit of help you can.

The phrase 'screwed the pooch' is used several times in "The Right Stuff" (in reference to making a massive error).
