Always speak in French. It sounds romantic no matter what you are saying. Removez-vous la garbaage. Oooh![sup]\*[/sup] German, on the other hand, makes me wonder why there are any baby Germans. Achtung, Herr Liebkink![sup]\*[/sup] * * * - I learned these phrases from Sid Caesar. ---

I have met, I think around 3 women who hate, actively despise the word “moist.” It’s not just the connotation, but the pronunciation, with sssibilant esssess. I reinvented the word “moistnesses” to make it worse. ---

> [@Musicat](#): > > Always speak in French. It sounds romantic no matter what you are saying. Removez-vous la garbaage. Oooh![sup]\*[/sup] This is especially funny when you realize that the French word for “garbage” is _la poubelle_. And it’s feminine. Yes, even the grotty stuff is chic in French. Which is why I always mentally translate French cooking terms back to English when I see them. “You’re having liver paste and snails tonight? Awesome!” ---

> [@Sunspace](#): > > This is especially funny when you realize that the French word for “garbage” is _la poubelle_. And it’s feminine. Yes, even the grotty stuff is chic in French. Right on. And “my little cabbage” is considered a term of endearment. ([Mon petit chou](http://french.about.com/b/2012/02/13/french-terms-of-endearment.htm)) Just to hijack this thread further, wasn’t it James Thurber who said he was having all the books in his personal library translated into French? He claimed they lacked something in the original.
