|text= I'm honestly divide on this matter.  Crap does have it's negative uses, just like any other word, but what differentiates the positive or neutral usage from the negative usage is context.  Yeah, there's what DTN wrote down, and that's good thinking, but basing something off of only negative data without a proper field run is a little jumping the gun, don't you think?
As for "ass", I'm not sure that word even ''has'' any positive uses, so keep it on there.
