Title: Dirty-Sounding Words/Phrases That Really Aren't Dirty
Post by: Flick James on May 16, 2011, 01:49:00 PM
Feel free to be as immature as you wish with this thread. I've been considering buying an Irish flute to start learning to play, and in my research about playing techniques, came across a term that made me think of starting this topic.

Flutter-tonguing: This is a technique used with non-reed wind instruments where the tongue is moved or fluttered while blowing to create forms of articulation.

What a great term, flutter-tonguing. A non-dirty definition to a pair of words that sound truly off-color.

Can you come up with any others?

Butt joint - The lower half of a bassoon.

You want your butt joint to be lined in rubber to prevent moisture damage.

Wow! This thread's got potential. Thanks so far. :teddyr:

Here's another music-related one: G-string.

In reference to Burgo's one about the office. I've got this female co-worker who is good people, but also a bit loud in her phone conversations. She also tends to say things that, taken out of context or mis-heard, are hilariously inappropriate.

Example #1: She was telling somebody she just sent an email to check her junkmail box because apparently the person on the other end of the phone couldn't see her email. So, combined with the general volume lull in the office that just happened to be at the same time, plus the fact that she was a bit frustrated, we hear, loud as can be: "CHECK YOUR JUNK!"

Example #2: This was just the other day. We have security badges that we have to wear to swipe to get into and out of the building. Her's wasn't working for some reason, so we all hear her, in her usual loud voice, talking to security about her non-working badge, only for some reason, we all could have sworn that instead of saying "badge" she said "vag." So here's the statement we overhear: "There's something wrong with my vag."

Example #3: I swear this JUST HAPPENED as I'm writing this. I just heard her say "Let me know when you've got it up." After the usual raised eyebrows she informed us she was trying to guide somebody to a specific website.

Not dirty . . . and I hope I don't offend anyone with this . . . but does anyone remember the "AYDS DIET PLAN"?  When the AIDS disease started to become well-known, these commercials seemed extremely awkward.  Eventually, they disappeared from television.

There used to be a low-budget DIY show I watched back in the early 80s, and I still remember an episode where the host said "Now take a utility knife and cut the tip off your caulk." :bouncegiggle:

One time I made my wife walk away.  I started talking about how I hate it when my caulk spallters all over the place when I squeeze it the wrong way.

I mentioned it before - Brazillian Blowout!  I thought it was the opposite of a Brazillian Bikini Wax and I imagined they style and blow dry your pubes and floof them up to be all puffy.  It's really just an expensive hair straightening treatment.

Dick Hickock- Murderer in Holcomb, Kansas

I brough this up recently in the Family Tree thread. I haven't confirmed it through research completely, but the story around my Dad's side of the family is that Dick Hickock is a distant cousin.

Frenching - a cooking term meaning to trim a rack of lamb so that the rib bones are exposed. I've heard a couple of TV chefs announce that they were going to French a rack of lamb, and it conjured up some pretty gross mental images. :teddyr:
