As far as I am concerned I will call them and the "PC" world dipsticks until the day I die and go to the big fire.

I think its because with the letters from 'Oil Level Indicator' you can create the phrase 'A Ventricle Oil Idol'. But from 'Dip Stick' you can't make anything better than 'Dip Ticks'. So from an anagram creating perspective Oil Level Indicator is clearly the best term to use. I think this is probably how most politically correct phrases are decided upon.

Is "Dicks tip" a good anagram?

In that case we should call them bell ends.
