you know what

slip her one

mattress mambo

spear the bearded clam

get a bit of sharp and blunt

play at belly to belly

take a turn in Bushey Park

polish your arse on the top sheet

have a bit of hows-yer-father

bit of the other

go in and out like a fiddlers elbow

have a bit of slap and tickle

bury the baldy fella

splat the manfat

diddlin

nobbin

roger her rigid

shoot betwixt wind and water

…and a few for us girls

grooving for truffles

drinking from the hairy cup

doing the kit kat shuffle

saying hello to the man in the boat

My brother’s name is Robert. One of his favorite expressions is “Bobbing on the Rob knob.”

One time after finishing up with a girl I remembered hearing “hot beef injection” in The Simpsons and, finally realizing a possible meaning of the phrase, started laughing out loud. She got me to share what I was laughing about (damn females and their persuasive ways), and for the remainder of the time we dated she would occasionally whisper in my ear that needed wanted a “hot beef injection.”

I always liked Horitontalizing.

I just call it “I so KNOW you’re not asleep!” 😃

Fucking  
Fooling around  
Sleeping together  
Riding (you/me) depending on whose talking about whom taking the active role

Bump & Grind

Having sex or (when drunk), “OK, honey, let’s go bang.”

Oh, and if I come into work tired, my coworker always says, “What? Too much humpin’ and bumpin’ last night, or what?” accompanied by that eloquent fist-smacking-the-other-palm gesture.

Wife and I frequently call it horking (_Strange Brew_ ref for you movie hounds). With kids around we also call it gardening, making pancakes, and playing chess.  
A few more Job Bob Briggs-isms:

Aardvarking.  
Making the sign of the double-breasted Nehru jacket (if-you-know-what-I-mean-and-I-think-you-do).
