When I was a boy my dad gave me money to go downtown and pay the
electric bill but instead I bought raffle tickets for a chance to win
a new truck. I told my dad when I got home and he beat my ass but the
next morning in the driveway sat a brand new truck. We all held each
other and cried, especially me cause it was the truck from the
electric company there to turn off the lights. ...Dad beat my ass again.
Your poor equine. Just as well he didn't beat your arse - that would
have hurt YOU !

For a not insignificant number of english speaking people, "ass" is used
to refer to the human rear end. Anyone saying "arse" would be given a questioning look.
