My dad was asking if I knew where he could get hold of a decent graphics editing program; I sent him a link to the GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) freeware.

One of the several definitions of the word being that of a certain participant in S&M Scrabble activity, my inner twelve-year-old cracked up when my mum quite innocently persisted in referring to it as "That gimp you sent your father..."  

(She demanded to know why I was sniggering; I replied that she wasn't old enough to be told. ;))

Oh, I'm using GIMP.  Does this make me a photo editing dominatrix? :P

I have so much love for this thread  ;D

I play in a couple of community bands and our musical director is the master of the well-timed double-entendre without actually having any idea that he's doing it. It's brilliant - he comes out with this stuff then carries on without missing a beat, leaving the rest of us rolling in the aisles and him completely oblivious as to what he's just said.  A few of my favourites:

- on complimenting the trumpet section on coming in at the right time/volume "That's what I like - a nice firm entrance!"

- on maneuvering a tuba into a cupboard: "Do you think it'll fit better if we put the bell end in first?"

- and don't even get me started on the trombone section, which with its slides, bells and abbreviation to 'bones' is just a veritable minefield of innuendo that happens at least once a week.

- ETA: And I forgot the best one, my personal favourite: Last week, we discovered that there's no difference in the speed required between fingering and tongueing.

Musicianship, I tell ya, it's a hotbed of filth that isn't really filth at all. Still, it makes rehearsals interesting  ;D

Miss Vertigo, I'll have to eventually pm you how I personally describe dissonance, although I do it on purpose, and also what my former choir director said about cadences. Well, that is if you want to know lol.

On someone's facebook status:
"Amazing how sexual carpentry is - screw, hardwood, tool, strip, nail"... Can you think of any more?
and replies:
"-bang the nail hard 2 make sure its in deeply ;-)"
"-Put your caulk in my crack"

We are in the middle of some major physical reorganisation of the office at work. I - happy as a pig in muck at this rare opportunity to be paid for wielding tools and disassembling/reassembling stuff - have lately been spending a great deal of my workday prowling about, screwdriver in hand, hunting for the next target.

Boss: "Ferrets, you might as well try and get some [normal] work done for the next half-hour. We can't do anything further till the lads come off tea-break and start shifting the filing cabinets."   

Me: "C'mon, I'm just desperate to screw something!"

Boss: "Easy, tiger."

;D Isn't it just!

One classic from our choir conductor was: "Ladies: brace yourselves for the tenors' entry!"

Oh, that's marvellous. We've not had that one yet. When we do, no doubt it'll be the trombones' entry. *winces*

BTW, may I please applaud you wildly for having a quote from The Bailey in your sig line? Win.

The first time I typed an operation that called for the Jamshidi needle I didn't believe what I was hearing.  Strangely enough, the lead transcriptionist knew exactly what it was I didn't believe I was hearing.
