The President?
You may not be familiar with the word, but you probably know people who show theirs daily.
u·ro·py·gi·um n. The protuberance from a bird’s rump from which its tail feathers grow.
Sooo… when you see a bird, or a person, strutting like a peacock with their tail feathers up for show for no apparent reason, you know their uropygium is working. Some folks just can’t help but show their ass constantly… Does anyone come to mind?

Actually, rather a lot of them do…. especially my last corporate job. Heh.
Hmmmm…..Ahhhaaaa!
Oh yes! Our dear friend George Dubbyu sure is showing a lot of his uropygium these days. Actually, I wish I had had this word in my vocabulary when I taught fourth graders the bird unit. They would have loved it! Damn, I missed a great teaching moment.
I have a hard time not succumbing to hysterical cackling when I think about him. Who better than a recreational arsonist to head the fire department, right?
forest gump should know where it’s at as he has his head stuck up in the nether region of his uropygium..
Just seen this, how could I have missed it. Yes he does have a funny walk, well at least it seems that way to me.
