That doesn't mean what you think it does.

This left me speechless, a woman, maybe into her 60's or so, comes into my line today and as she prepares to swipe her card I ask her "credit or debit?". She replies "Debit. I guess it'll tell me if I shot my load or not." You...whaaa?

So I finished her transaction and she turns to the lady behind her (whom she had been talking to) and says "Guess I should go home now. I just blew my wad." I could feel my face getting red at this point trying to hold back the laughter. Is it terrible that I kinda find it sweet that some people can be so innocent minded? Or maybe she was messing with me?

[Fenrus]

That... is terrible!

I don't think I could keep a straight face if someone said that to me, really.

In other news, it works quite well with your signature, and the people at work are trying to figure out why I'm laughing.

[SG15Z]

Yeah I would have died of laughter by that point dude. No question about it!

where I grew up that means you've spent all your money. Nothing at all to do with reproductive tissue.

Ditto here, though i know both. The suggestive slang is actually fairly new, so it doesn't surprise me. Heck, ifn you watch The Sting, IIRC they refer to the runner's money as his wad.

It originally refers to artillery, ca. the mid-19th century. The load being all the remaining gunpowder, used up when attempting maximum range.

[Gabrielle Proctor]

Yep, I would have died then and there of laughter.

That's what I thought it meant too, but every time I used that phrase my parents got angry and told me to stop using it.

I use it anyway, just because it sounds funny.

What...the...holy...freaking...hell?!

Several issues of old Marvel comics written by Stan Lee has a character (I remember The Thing in particular, but there are others) telling another hero that they call or they don't want "sloppy seconds" on a villain they are beating on.

We do not think he knew exactly what it meant.

[sms001]

I don't think it's terrible at all that you assume someone could be innocent of the double entendre in those phrases. Quite nice in fact. I would have still been snorting behind my nose, but I glad you kept a straight face.

[Becks]

There's plenty of room in the gutter!!!

My Dad has a frequent habit, when something has him confused or stumped, of saying "Well, I'm all humped up!" Never have I heard anyone use that term before, but it sounds disgusting and he doesn't understand why.

Gotta love the older generation though, sometimes they just don't realize that what they used to always say has new meaning. Just the other day I enlightened Mom on what a 'pecker' was and she was shocked.

My great aunt (born in 1909) never stopped describing her father as "one of the gayest men you ever met". My sister and I learned just to smile and hold in the guffaw.
