“I have a wocket in my pocket” always sounded kind of naughty to me.

Conversation between a friend and me the other day, about one of our classes:

Friend: So, how’s your week been going?  
Me: Oh, you know. Hegel took up most of my time. I couldn’t really concentrate on anything else because of him.  
Friend: Yeah, I know. Fucking Hegel.  
Me: I mean, he was just THERE, and … it was just too big. There was just SO MUCH of him.

Commercials:

“I want some fun piled on a bun, I want a manwich please”.

Well yes piling on a bun is the best way to get fun out of a manwich.

Pretty much anything of the form “[verb]ing the [noun]” sounds like a euphemism for masturbation.

Complete hijack here, but I can’t resist.

Does anyone else think that **chlamydia** sounds like a lovely name for a garden plant?

No-one?

Oh…Kay… Just me then.  
[/QUOTE]

There’s an urban legend about a lady who thought Chlamydia was a lovely name for her newborn daughter. :eek: 😃

I like it for a plant, too; “Have you seen my chlamydia? It’s coming along very nicely. I think it might be starting to spread, even.”

Not _dirty_ dirty, more juvenile toilet humor here. The card game called “pinochle” has always sounded funny to me.

In Hillsborough county we have a county commissioner named Rhonda Storms. The first time I heard the name I thought, “They elected a stripper?” But she’s actually a total right-wing bitch.

[QUOTE=The Golden Ass]  
I was watching football last week and practically ever word out of the commentator’s mouth sounded dirty. But the one I’m still snickering about is “Well, the coach really likes the tightends to handle his balls.”

Okay!

Or the announcer that said (no cite) “He picked his hole and squrimed for five yards!”

Can’t take credit for this, it won the best worst opening line contest or somesuch:

“Dora loved to explore”

It didn’t help that my kids were taking a bubble bath and we’ve got Dora, who’s the cap, sitting on a mountain, which has the bubblebath…except Alex (boy) was holding Dora in a…um…sexually possible way.

That’s outstanding. I still get a kick out of Big Ass Fans. It’s amusing in several ways, especially in light of the rule of punctuating a compound adjective and their failure to do so; thus creating an image of Ass Fans that are themselved “Big,” whatever that may mean. But, check out the ass that the have for the logo. I’m sure the placement of the left, front leg was purely accidental. 😉

Once at the sushi bar, I overheard a high school teacher complain that she’d spent the daying being worn out by 17-year olds.

When we change positions it’s called a “tap out.”
