Our hospital CEO went to a CEO meeting years ago. He was suppose to speak on incontinence. He spent the entire talk substituting the word Impotence.

My wife said "outer body experience" a couple of weeks ago. I've thought about it every day since. We've been married for 24 years......you think a know a person. I think it might be over.

Organism and orgasm are very different things.

You have been warned.

The 1st date I had with my wife we went out to lunch at an Italian restaurant. Looking over the menu I saw a dish I'd never had before, Quiche Lorraine. The eggs, flaky crust sounded really good. So it's my urn to order and I tell the server I'd like the quickie lorraine. Both the server and wife look at me and lower their heads trying not to laugh.

Still together after 45+ years so that didn't scare her off.

LSU used to refer to their mini-courses between spring and summer semesters as "intersession".

As a student back in the day, one time at registration I was convinced by a friend to help give incoming new students tours around campus to get them started. I had a group of about 10. At some point, someone randomly asked "So what are these courses I have heard about that occur between semesters"?

To which I replied "Oh, you mean 'intercourse'..." (which actually makes sense if you think about it).

After a few of them giggled a bit, it dawned on me what I had said. Definitely made the rest of the tour awkward

A reminder to everyone that you're probably the only one to remember, in vivid detail, the cringiest moments of your life. I have to remind myself of that... a lot.

I was 18 years old and fighting with an ex-boyfriend who was a few years older than I was. I told him I would not be at his "beckoned call" and he corrected me and said it's "beck and call."

I still cringe when I think about it.

Yes, I pronounced Yosemite as Yo-Zah-Might

Somehow in my many years of life I had never seen the word spelled out yet knew of Yosemite Sam.

my first real job in highschool was at the local AM radio station doing the Sunday morning signon shift, which ended with a live 5 minute rip-and-read of Alabama news stories off the AP wire

one day, i was struggling mightily to get through it (due to my actions from Saturday night) and closed with a story about an altercation at a hairdresser’s shop that had resulted in gunplay

when i got home that afternoon my family couldn’t wait to tell me how much they enjoyed hearing me broadcast the news about the shootout out at Betty’s Beauty Saloon

I used to get Protestant and prostitute mixed up when I was a kid. I told my teacher at school that I was a Catholic but my grandparents were prostitutes.

A guy in court, accused of rape, testified that he had "reptile dysfunction".

Years ago, I was taking a deposition. The man said that his wife had a baby by "Syrian Section." He also had a "penile screw" installed, but on further questioning clarified that he meant "pedicle screw." It took me a while to figure out what he was trying to say.

waiting tables in college

1. told a table of 4 hot women that I would be right back with their spinach and artichoke dick. They paused for a second and then started laughing hysterically

2. Asked a lady if her son needed a kids menu. Turns out it wasn't her son. It was her lesbian girlfriend that looked like a 12 year old boy. She was pissed and I sat her in a different servers section and offered to cover the tip if she didn't tip well.
