Useful Unit of Measurement on the Farm

1 "Shit-Ton" = a whole lot. Not necessarily always equalling a standard ton, unless of course you're talking about 40 50-lb. bags of chicken litter. Used in reference to physical quantities rather than qualities. For example: Correct: 'How much did it rain last night?'...'A shit-ton.' or "How many leaks are there in the irrigation system?"..."A shit-ton." Incorrect: 'When I hit you in the face with the tractor, how bad did it hurt?'...'A shit-ton.'
