    my daughter listens to a song called "Godspeed" every night at bedtime...when she sings along she says "God Peed"...
  • Tea Bagging....
    When I was a pre-teen, tea-bagging was a caffeine rush derived by sucking on tea-bags, and then jumping around with a slight high. Fast forward 30 years.

    I saw some tea-bags dumped in the trash, and my son, aged 15, had a sleep-over with several of his friends. My wife had dumped those tea-bags, but I didn't know that. I jokingly said "I see you guys were tea-bagging - eh?"

    They all looked at me wide-eyed, embarrassed. I continued...
    "Oh come on! I used to do that with my friends years ago" - and so the conversation went.
    I left it at a that, and it was not until later that night at a party that somebody advised me of my mistake.

    I WAS APPALLED!

    Ahhhh hhaaa that is sooooo funny!!

    When I was young I thought the lyric to the Johnny Rivers song, "Secret Agent Man" was actually "secret asian man". In my defense, I was a child.

    Omg, this thread just gave me my entire life! Laughing so hard.

    But when I was younger, I really thought Unicorns were real animals that had gone extinct. I remember in like 3rd grade my teacher asked the class to name some extinct animals and I raised my hand and said Unicorns! And everyone laughed at me. Lol.

    My darling daughter, when she was 3 was helping me make nachos. She asked if we could make 'f***kin moldy' to dip them in. She's 7 now and we still don't call it guacamole. We call it 'bleepin moldy' now, it still gets laughs.

    "My Ding a Ling", by Chuck Berry. I had an old 45 (remember those??) of that song when I was 7 or 8 years old. My older brother had given it to me. I could not understand why my father got so upset over it.

    I mean, really - what was so bad about a boy playing with his Ding a Ling....it's just a string with bells on it....


    lol...well, that's what I thought until I was about 15 and the true meaning finally dawned on me!

    "Momma said not to wear my moccasins" - Michael Jackson. Made more sense than "Mama-say mama-sah ma-ma-coo-
    sah" then, and still makes more sense now. :)

    Not until the middle of high school did I learn the pretzel weren't "prentzels."
    My brother, 19, and I, 15, (at the time) were talking about how we were so different from each other, literally opposites. I said, "Its like I'm the brains and you are the brawn." He replied with a tone, "Idiot. It's 'I'm the brains and you're the bronze, not brawn!"
    I laughed at him until I couldn't breathe any more, all the while he looked at me like I was an idiot!

    MY cousin's wife (who is American) says, WALLAH. What she actual meant was Voilà!!! Apprently lots of Amercian english only people do this. LOL
    I'm an American, and continental sophistication was pretty thin on the ground in our neck of the woods. I'd never heard anyone say "Voilà," but I'd read it here and there.

    I'm not particularly dyslexic, but I spent half my childhood wondering why on earth anybody would announce or present something by saying: "Viola!"

    (Plus, how come they'd never say: "Cello!"?)

    Holy crap! I never knew that, lol. I've always thought it was "intensive purposes" too.

    Rick James: Super Freak

    Until a couple of months ago I thought he was saying "she had instant twenty candles". Then all of the sudden I heard the song and realized it was "incense, wine and candles".

    I once overheard my roommate (on her cell phone) tell someone that they'd better watch out, or they would "reap the percussions" (aka. repercussions) of their actions. I stopped her, asking "Do you realize you just told someone they would harvest drum sets?"

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I can't stop laughing... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Yeah, I thought for years it was "wrapped up like a douche" since y'know, a well-wrapped douche is EVERY woman's ideal gift, right?
