Scrabble No No

I just remembered playing Scrabble with my mom and my aunt when I was about 10 years old. I put down the word, "cum." They froze and there was instant tension at the table. My mom cautiously asked me what that word was. I said, "Cum, like my cum file at school." My mom breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That is short for cumulative. You can't use an abbreviation."

I don't really like Scrabble.

I remember telling my dad once that my BFF and I called another friend a dildo. I was giggling about it. He said that wasn't a nice word, and asked me if I knew what it meant, to which I don't think I gave any sort of response.

I was in 7th or 8th grade and had NO idea.

I had to explain to a 12 year old why it isn't nice to call someone a douche-bag. Her mother was a teacher at my school...

I once pronounced the name Kuntz incorrectly after seeing it on a mailbox. My sister burst out laughing and I didn't have a clue.

She's such a pervert.

OMG, I don't remember this... lol
Seems lately I have a mental block when it comes to female genitalia. Must be a menopausal thing... Denial or something? Now you have me obsessed with it, been thinking of it for two days straight!
