Phrases we use..

Merely an observation, but since becoming more active on these boards, it frequently occurs to me that some of the terms we frequently use and think nothing of may be quite confusing/amusing to outsiders.

For example, "Bringing guests to ED" immediately made me wonder why this guy would want to share his erectile dysfunction with "guests".

"Spirited driving".. surely we all mean "driving in a manner inconsistent with the law"?

I still like the hookers in the trunk comments. It's literal.

Lately, I've noticed that my tranny's stick doesn't stay in place. What should I do?

Sometimes, if the rear end starts to get away from me, I just let off a little and it snaps back - then I can hit it hard again.

I've been calling people 'muppets' lately. Depending on your geographical location, that may or may not be odd.
