Awkward question from my boss

Actually, I suppose he’s not exactly my boss any more. The partner who is the former head of our department and I have a fun, bantering relationship, and we often exchange off-color jokes, both in person and by email (just for background, he is male; I am female). However, I was unprepared for this phone call the other day:

“So, I have this rather rude and funny email that I was going to forward to you. But there’s a word in it that I’ve never heard before, and I was wondering if you knew what it meant.”

“Okay…”

“Have you ever heard of ‘felching’? I looked in my dictionary and I couldn’t find it.”

:eek:

After a pause, I told him I was uncomfortable defining it for him, and I emailed him the link to the Wikipedia entry.

He called later to apologize for asking. From context in the email he was forwarding (which he did send me, and which was pretty funny), it had something to do with gerbil-stuffing. He was shocked when he found out that that was the “tame” definition.

Hmm.

I never bothered to actually find out what ‘felching’ meant myself… until now.

:frowning:

Nothing at all to do with your OP, but I do love that “Santorum” is listed as a related link under the topic of felching.

Brings a tear to my eye, it does.

Really? You mean after reading it several thousand times on these boards you never bothered to look it up or ask what it meant? Shocking!

The hell DOES it mean. Wikipedia is either down or very ssslllooooowww right now and I couldn’t look it up myself.

Under Google ‘images’ this comes up under “felching”. Is that correct?

Er, no, but my cruel cruel mind likes to connect things. It is currently connecting the wrinkly old woman with the act of feltching.

:frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

I never bothered to look it up either. I just assumed is a synonym for passing gas in a nasty manner. I guess I was wrong.

Oh for Og’s sake, the suspense is killing me and I need to be at work soon. Will somebody put an end to this madness and define it here? In a spoiler box if the member defining the word deems it neccesary.

It’s the act of sucking the semen (and whatever else might come with it) out of your partner’s anus after sex.

Oh.

Oh, my.

And people actually *do *this?

Uh…

:eek:

although we seem to have seriously maimed, if not outright killed wikipedia in our attempts to better understand obscure sexual practices. It’s still not loading. :smiley:

Do NOT highlight the above spoiler box. :smiley:

But, but, but…goat felching?? I so do NOT want to know.

It can also refer to sucking semen out of a vagina.

Well, ya gots two choices: Either goat does you, or you do the goat.
I’m not sure which is worse. :confused:

First, I thought Cecil covered this back in the day. And second, Alpheus Felch would make a great username.

ENugent, I wish more folks would have co-workers like yours. The guy is fun to be around, but at least has a grasp at tact. Give him some points for me.
