The alltime winner though was a couple who live in Holsworthy, Devon, who were called...no kidding...Mr and Mrs Twatface

ok, i'm back. Australia seems to be free of Twatfaces, although I suspect that if there were any, there's a good chance they'd have a silent number. The Devon couple were brave to be listed...
Originally posted by StarValleyWyThankyou so much.
Hint... "Lay = A slang term referring to sexual intercourse."... as to the rest... ahem... err...
I thought Bob Dylan just wrote catchy tunes:
This is is what (you think)?Bob meant>
Sexual intercourse,sexual intercourse,lady,sexual intercourse.
I am so dumd.

Originally posted by missleadNot at all Linda. I'm sure that as a savy lyracist, Dylan was quite aware of the double entendre of the term. It adds zip to the tune... by the way, I wonder if Dylan wrote that one or if he recorded it?
Thankyou so much.

Originally posted by StarValleyWyWell, thanks for the hint, but it covers the part I already understand. The part I don't get is the 'sod' part. To me, 'sod' means those square pieces of grass, so I don't really get what is funny about a 'sod' farm or laying sod. The only thing I can think of is that it is funny because 'sod' can also mean a drunk, so if that is the case I'll just have to chalk it up as to not really being that funny to me.

Originally posted by stalemate365Lets just say it has biblical roots into slang. Sodom was this old, very wicked city, you see... Genesis 19 vs. 1-11 Then there was this angry God fellow and a big getaway and "Lots of Salt" and... well. These vague and confusing verses seem to have given birth in all of the known christian world to the word "sodomy". <James Burke I'll never be > Hence the inherited slang "sod" as being one who.... oh, cripes! never mind. You are right. It wasn't that funny to start with and it's getting worse and worse... the work gang was not "laying sod". They were laying "the sod". 😞😕

Originally posted by StarValleyWylol, leave it to me to screw up a good joke. i have heard all about Sodom and I know the term sodomy, but I had never heard the slang 'sod' used in that context, hence my confusion.

Originally posted by UncleAdamonly 2 meanings? I still have a headache from yesterday, when I tried to explain to a French speaker what the word "fit" meant. After realisin that you could fit in something or to be physically fit or to be fit for a position of responsability we looked in the dictionary and things got worse from there.
alot of words have two meanings, like:
Ass = Donkey or Butt
Gay = Happy or Homo-sexual
Believe me when I say that, from a foreign perspective, English can be a sod of a language to get to grips with.
Originally posted by geniusThat reminds me of "Meet the Parents" where they realised that if their daughter married her name would be Martha Fokker...
i know someone called seema amin. and at one point she was dating a certain "alister butt"...if they got married...
they was also "henryetta lyon" (henry-eat-a lion)
