Accidental innuendoFreddy Woo writes, "A woman I used to work with once walked into a car workshop to get her windscreen replaced, and uttered the immortal line, "Have you seen the size of my crack?"
What innuendos have you accidentally walked into? Are you a 1970s Carry On film character?
Extra points for the inappropriateness of the context

Not me, but a colleagueMany years ago I worked for a financial institution. The company stationery department had a small printing press - nothing too exciting, but good enough for running off simple forms in single colours. Once in a while, they'd run jobs in colours other than black.
As cleaning a printing press is a dull job that takes a while, it was always best to wait until there were several jobs of the same colour going through. This saved some time and kept everyone happy.
For reasons I can't remember, a particular form was being done in the 'house' colour. It was low priority, so the printing could wait. Not-very-nice Caroline rang the stationery manager to explain this job was waiting in the wings so could he let her know when he was running any jobs in the house colour.
In fact, she said: "When you think you're going to get a blue job, let me know because I can give you another."
The expression of horror on her face as she realised what she'd said was more precious than rubies....
