    That's a really unfortunate abbreviation. That word is also common slang for male anatomy in the States.

      'scrot' is the name of a popular linux screenshot utility. I have never heard of anyone using it in any other context. Well, until now anyway :P

      That's scrote (long O), not scrot (short O).

      I find some humour in it.

  "Screencap" would be a less objectionable term.
