One of the greatest things about living far from home is that distance brings clearness.
In particular, the less you speak your mother tongue, the more you start noticing tiny little things about it.
Sometimes it’s cute things, like the fact that the words sonnellino (nap in Italian) and burrone (Italian for ravine) sound pretty hilarious.

Pooping someone or Cagare qualcuno means paying attention to what somebody is saying or, more generically, to notice someone.
Usage Examples:
– How’s it going with Francesco? Has he asked you out yet?
– Not at all. He barely poops me….

– …and after that could you please drive the kids to school?
– ……
– Hello?! Could you poop me?
– Uh?
– What’s on your mind lately? You’re so distracted!
