    Not to mention you can carry 4-8 of them at the same time, as well as crates bigger than your average lalafell :P

    Back in beta phase 3 days, it was an image of a corpse, but it looked kind of disturbing, guess that's why it's a flower now.

Fernehawles is also the man when it comes to old English, archaic slang, I wouldn't question the localization team unless you were like a serious old english scholar and had like a phd in it, then I'd be like "damn you educated!", but most people barely know modern english enough now a days which is sad.
    Good post about this in another thread

    I think almost every male NPC in limsa has something to say about their "Stiff masts" or something equally as disturbing.

    It's not unlike watching something like Shrek. It's designed for the younger audiences but the tongue in cheek references are there if you are adult/experienced enough to get them.

    Cactuar Piss however is a fairly blunt one I'll give you that. Some did have a point above though that "piss" is olde slang rather than the common term it is used for in modern age.

    So many pointless threads would never happen if people would actually, you know, read.

    As others have said, it's not actually piss, it's the Eorzean equivilant of rotgut or moonshine. The game uses lots of crass adult phrases, so the word's use shouldn't shock anyone who has actually PLAYED the game.
