Thank you, and yes I agree. Drop implies damage or fecal waste. When my adopted parents wanted to embarrass me, they sometimes said I had been dropped on my head before the adoption; in school, I dropped a class I had no chance of passing; and my father remarked about the neighbor's boxer dog, once, by saying, "That damn Mike just dropped a pile like I have never seen before." (Mike, the neighbor's senior dog, did have very active and efficient bowels.)
