Interesting Navy term

Delved into the "poop deck" thing. A constellation (Puppis), actually. High ground, if you will. And aft. Who knew? My original thoughts were a bit more infantile, as might be imagined. Has nothing to do with #2. Learn something every day. Thanks, Vlad.
 
There was a British Comedy film called Carry on Jack one of a long series of 'Carry on' films. Carry on Jack featured a midshipman called Albert Poop-Decker. There's a good description on Wiki of the film. And yes, British comedy thrives on #2 jokes.
