**Just thought of another my sadistic classmates liked to tell to the uninitiated:

Two monkeys are taking a bath together.
Says one, “Please pass the soap.”
The other replies, “What, me? I’m not a typewriter!”

Followed by a round of loud guffawing. Sigh…kids can be so cruel. **

Here we go again…I dontgeddit…

Better to have Aussies mention the phrase “Whale oil beef hooked!”

Okay. So I knew what THE diaphragm was, but I had no idea whatsoever that there was also a contraceptive called a diaphragm.
And it would definitely take years to learn, phew! **

Reminds me of my sophomore year in HS. In study hall, reading MAILER’S, THE NAKED AND THE DEAD. Sex scene. The guy is saying, he “can feel her diaphragm”. Whaaat??? “Psst–Janie? Where’s yer diaphragm”. Ponders–then pats just above her waist----
