Tell us what ladybird mean, Drina.Misunderstandings due to false language interpretations between people of different nationalities. When I first arrived in England in 1948 I heard somebody say "we are having an early spring there is a ladybird in the garden". Thinking she was referring to a bird I asked: "how do you know it is a lady? I couldn't understand why they laughed so much and they never let me forget my blunder during the next 10 years I lived in England.
Ah, what we call a ladybug in the U.S.Mia, in England "a ladybird" is a small brightly coloured beetle (insect) marked with black spots.
I'm with you on this. My nephews are all grown men, in their 30s and one is 41. They think nothing of letting one rip whenever and my eldest nephew could fuel a rocket with his. I always crack-up.Farts.
I am incapable of not laughing out loud, uncontrollably, at farts.
I'm with you, except not too much at the newer seasons... Tho I do still giggle.Any episode of Trailer Park Boys.
I agree. The older seasons are better but the newer ones are still good. RIP John Dunsworth.I'm with you, except not too much at the newer seasons... Tho I do still giggle.
But those original ones, omg.
'Breeze' by Blain Morris is my ringtone.
HA!!!! I'll bet she thought why is he asking me THAT??The word "infusion" in french means "tisane"
In 1976 living in South Africa when a lady guest refused coffee at our home my french husband Pierre asked her "Would you like an infusion, madam?" When very shocked she replied "I beg your pardon, sir?" I almost dropped the tray with the coffee cups I was holding standing by them and had to rush back to the kitchen I was laughing so much.
Our guests that evening were not close friends but people we were expected to receive now and then since my husband was representing his company in
South Africa.
PS. The word "infusion" was interpreted by the lady in question as "enema"
