Toilet humour
Everyone's heard of words which mean things in different languages... Like a car called a "Nova" which didn't sell well in France as that means, "doesn't go".
Well, I was talking to a Dutch couple the other day, and I told them what my website was and they burst out laughing. It turns out that plee, pronounced play, is slang for toilet in Dutch. Doh!
Random quote from a book I'm reading,
That's the major failure of showers. There's nowhere to float your duck.

actually that was in mexico I think, as "nova" is "doesn't go" in Spanish - French is "ne va pas" - and yes, I know I'm a pedantic bastard and just wasted around a minute of everyone's lives :) sorry 'bout that, mwah
