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

BIt of a French Language mixup...Was sat in a nice café in Marseille looking at the menu when I exclaim to my French friend "J'aime la Moule" at which point she stared at me with a look of horror on her face her face before breaking down in hysterical laughter...
Anyway, took a little while for me to get to the bottom of it but she finally explained to me (while wiping tears out of her eyes) that, in France a euphemism for 'teh lady bits' is Moule (mussel) and so if you are going to exclaim something like that in public it is best to make sure you always say 'mussels and chips' (moule et frit) less there be some kind of unfortunate misunderstanding...

or you can use the plural'Les Moules' - which is usually what it says on the menu - bon appetit!
