@CiaraNi This thread is another good example of slang which does not translate well over the pond!
@fesshole yeah I still get laughed at for that time I mistook my sis-in-law's fanny for my wife's (they look remarkably similar). In my defense, she WAS standing at our stove stirring something. I came walking up, my focus equally divided on what was being cooked and a familiar looking tush that was just begging to be patted. And it was a pat-pat-scratchy-scratch-cheek-lifter too. She goes "Hello!" and my hand recoiled like that booty shocked me when I heard her voice 😳
