dirty!

Okay, so, this site? Totally educational. Most of this stuff I've never even *heard* of before. (Link from anniesj.)

Right now I'm currently pondering whether "hoser" has a secret obscene alternate meaning, or if the NFL just hates Canadians.

Hee!

::ponders getting a jersey that says "Pipefelcher" on the back, since that's okay::

Well, the article does say "“The idea behind personalized jerseys is for a fan to put his or her name on the back or possibly a nickname,” the spokesman said. and that is a nickname, so...

Oh no! Wouldn't want to offend anyone with a shirt that says "Go me"!

I always thought hoser was in reference to one's penis somehow.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I am offended by you even having that in my comments, dude.

*is banned for life, omg*

Well, I'm sure there are many more compound words that would work with ass (which is where my interest... petered out), but I can't help but grin like a 12 year old over 'asspirate'. heh. The NFL. Words cannot adequately describe the... wierdness there.

[hobbledehoy.livejournal.com]

i'm just intrigued by how, if you can't have ass, you'd be allowed to have any other word with ass.

i mean, sure names with ass in them. but i feel like most of those are obviously not names.

[philexos.livejournal.com]

ROFLMAO!

[imkalena.livejournal.com]

Is that when you accidentally inhale come from somebody's ass?

MY question is, if they don't like the word BEASTALITY or even BEASTIALITY, what if you spell it properly??

[philexos.livejournal.com]

hehe I noted a number of those. Gawd. Just TOO funny.

hoser! *has Strange Brew flashback*

Also, why is "Breast Lover" a *bad* thing?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Isn't the NFL known for its stance against objectification of women's bodies?

[serialkarma.livejournal.com]

Oh, silly me. I thought that was the FCC.

[imkalena.livejournal.com]

Uh . . . what is RAE CARRUTH?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I actually went and googled that one -- it's the name of a former NFL player who was convicted for conspiracy to commit murder.

[philexos.livejournal.com]

holy shit! That... kinda... sucks the fun out of it; being as how that, at least, makes a kind of sense.

For what it's worth, I looked up "hoser" in my handy dandy "Slang and Euphemism: A dictionary of oaths, curses,insults, ethnic slurs, sexual slang and metaphor, drug talk, college lingo and related matters" by Richard A. Spears and here's what Mr. Spears had to say.

hoser 1. a promiscuous person, often a male. [U.S. slang, late 1900s] 2. a despised person, often a male.

Yeah, I can see why the NFL wouldn't want to promote promiscuous males...

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Ha! Revealed! Google wasn't giving me anything non-Canadian themed for that.

[zarahemla.livejournal.com]

What about 'glazed donut'? I mean, I thought I knew stuff about bad words, but a donut is a donut to me.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Quick google search indicates cunnilingus reference, maybe?

[zarahemla.livejournal.com]

Heh heh, you google-searched that. You're crazy!! (I didn't dare. ;))

[philexos.livejournal.com]

This is just gonna go on and on, in't it? hehe

[claire.livejournal.com]

Dude, and I did so want a jersey with "Ball Sack" on it ;)
