Verb or noun, derived from 17th century English hunting term. Scumb means foxshЎt, and hunters "scumbered"
when they avoided treading in the scumb, which would throw their dogs off the scent.
To scumber today means to narrowly avoiding ending up in the crap.
Usually used when a disaster has narrowly been avoided.
