Hmm, Fuck em if they can’t take a joke. In french, it might be:

Les **nict** s’ils puevent pas prendre une plaisanterie.

“Lay kneect seal poov pa prawn dre oon play son ter ee”

The bolded word is iffy. might wanna check with someone more up to date on their french.

Could this be where the term nooky (for sex) came from?

Here’s one for you, Coldy!

“Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!”

Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil, and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well.

“foodray lay seal neu …”

Voor een byte kom je ongeveer 3 bits te kort.  
These don’t really work in Dutch though. The “one \*\*\*\* short of a \*\*\*\*” is just too English to translate.

Interesting. It wouldn’t be the first word in the English/American language that has its origings in Dutch. Boss (“Baas”) and coffee (“koffie”) come to mind. Why not nooky 😉
