Misheard and MisunderstoodRachelswipe says: My niece - after months of begging - was finally allowed to get a hamster, and her grandfather was utterly horrified to learn that it had been called "Nipples", a pretty good name for a pet if you ask us. Alas, it was only the more mundane "Nibbles" - what have you misheard or misunderstood, with truly hilarious consequences?

A little twiddle makes all the difference...I asked for "Pao Dura" when I should have said the almost identical sounding "Pão Dura". The latter means "hard bread"; unfortunately the formar means "hard stick", or, in the equivalent UK slang, "stiffy".
