LOL.
Maybe this thread will become something like "foreign expressions that backfire when translated in english".
For instance, a french guy in dire straits could say "pulling at the devil's cock".

LOL again.
In french, when you "jump" a woman, you're fucking her.

After a day of looking around mnf club, I see this crop up quite often.

"Straight, likes lesbians..."

That is not how being 'straight' works my friend XD

It always sets off my grammar senses when anyone says they're looking for someone who's "dominate".
