    When I first met (now) my very good buy friend, I jokingly took his sammich and he said "I will freakin donkey punch you!" i was like "woah, that's kinda inappropriate (sp?) there buddy!" And he was like "what, I just mean I'll punch you in the stomach".....I let him think that was what it meant for a while before finally correcting him....

    he still threatens to donkey punch me

    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!

    BAHAHAHAHAHA!! This one had me rolling!!!

    "'Scuse me, while I kiss this guy...." - Jimi Hendrix

    It does sound like he is saying that, I actually laughed out loud when I read this. That is great.

    "Revved up like a deuce, another runner in the night". ... The word deuce, in both the Springsteen and Earth Band versions, refers to a 1932 model Ford.

    my husband thought this:

    "Blinded by the light/ revved up like a DOUCHE.... I had to explain to him what a Douse was. :) He still sings it this way for a laugh.

    OMG...this is me! Tell your Hubby he isn't alone!
    P.S. The song totally says 'douche' not deuce...hahaha I can hear it in the song I tell ya...haha


    Springsteen wrote it as "deuce" as in the hot rod. However, when it was recorded (and made big) by MME's band, they did in fact sing "douche"...

    at least that is what Springsteen said in an interview at one time.... if you listen to the original (Bruce's) version - it was "deuce"
    Ah, that makes sense. I've listened to that song many times, trying to hear "deuce" but it is definitely "douche"!

    I always heard "dirty deeds and the Dunder Chief" instead of "done dirt cheap". Even now that I know the right lyrics, I still sing Dunder Chief, because it's more fun.

    I had a friend who thought it was dirty jeans and dungarees lol!!

    In Me and Bobby McGee I always thought she was saying "windshield wipers, turpentine"
    That's what I thought all my life. I only realized it about a month ago, and now I've forgotten what the real words are.

    My husband thought the line in "Oh Holy Night" was "round, young virgin". We have laughed about that every year. He is not the only person who thinks this apparently. LOL!

    I thought the expression was "for all intensive purposes" instead of "for all intents and purposes" until just a few years ago! And then I just about DIED of laughter when, on 30 Rock a couple weeks ago, there was a line of "idiots" picketing outside and Denise Richards was standing in it and she said "for all intensive purposes!" with a proud jut of her chin!

    I just learned something new. OMG - I have always thought that was the phrase. :blushing:

    Funeral of Hearts by HIM
    It actually is: "Love's the funeral of hearts / - - / - - / on flowers of evil in bloom"
    How I heard it as a teenager: "Just a few more of hearts / - - / - - / flies of evil in blue"

    I saw a banner in Ottawa that the Rideau Cannal was officially Guiness certified. I thought it meant that they could now serve Guiness while people skated... no, it meant the the Guiness book of world records had certified it as the world's longest outdoor skating rink. My ex never let me live that one down...
