Things That Sound Dirty, But Are Not

The title says it all. Entries can be from any category. Have some fun with it. If you are a "holier-than-thou" or "stick in the mud" type, this may not be your cup of tea...or "A!"

Let's start up with a basketball term I heard incessantly during the NBA Finals:

Not exactly what you are looking for, but... when I first saw a Kinko's, I thought they sold "kinky" things like handcuffs, lingerie, lotions, etc. I thought it was an "adult" toy store. Then I went in and it was copies, faxes (it was 1989) and printing. I had a good laugh.
I work for a gas company and we have a lot of dirty-word supplies, such as nipples and cocks.

Toilet seats!

"It's one of the cleanest things you'll run across in terms of micro-organisms," (Dr. Chuck Gerba) says. "It's our gold standard - there are not many things cleaner than a toilet seat when it comes to germs."

Apparently, phones, cutting boards, refrigerators, and dish towels are much, much dirtier.

- from "Is the toilet seat really the dirtiest place in the home?"

Ugh. I always hate hearing stuff like that!

Anyone else remember listening to Dr. Dean Edell on the radio? I loved his show. He often got into the 'gross' and/or unusual health/medical stuff. But anyway, back in the day (and more recently, Dr. Oz said much the same thing) Dr. Dean talked about the benefit of using those wet toilet wipes. He said, paraphrasing, 'If you got poop on your fingers, would you just wipe it off with a dry tissue and call that good? No? So why would you think that's good for your butthole?' Then he excused himself for using the vernacular, and got off on a funny riff about a doctor simply using the term 'butthole'... but anyway. smiling smiley

I always figured, well, yeah, however... I don't eat, or pick my teeth or nose or eyes, or prepare food, or anything else like that, with my butthole, like I do with my fingers! smiling smiley

So IMT, just wondering, does MrsIMTrashman think you are busy completing shop reports, when, in reality, you are fervently adding to the "Things That Sound Dirty" list?

Since you also live in FL, my lips are sealed as long as you swear you're really a trash man and your name is not Tim. smiling smiley

(heart)

I intend to live forever. So far, so good.
When I first saw IMTrashman's name, I thought it was because he liked to write dirty, trashy or suggestive things. So he is my entry.

and when I was a kid, I thought the word "nuptials" sounded dirty.

Equal rights for others does not mean fewer rights for you. It's not pie.

Wow! I can't believe that it took me this long to see this thread! Now you're talking my
language!

I always thought "breast stroke" was pretty funny. Anyone remember Les Nessman on "WKRP"? He reported on a swim meet and talked about breast stroking.

Anyway, we like to make up names that sound dirty. Like Phil McKracken.

And then there's my soft, warm, red beaver (scarf).......I have a whole Facebook group for that one.
