More of a double entendre really
Jim and I (both snowboarders) are on a lift with an American girl who is a skier, and we're watching the young snowboarders in the terrain park below us trying to make jumps landing on their backs and lying in the snow, stunned.
"Don't you guys get sore asses?" asks the skier.
"Nah, we're just good friends." I reply.

» My Biggest Disappointment
Football
I'm a bloke and football disappoints me on several levels:
1. The players fall over at the slightest provocation even when, if they stayed on their feet, they'd get a chance on goal instead of hoofing the ball into row Z.
2. It's boring. There aren't enough goals - in most other sports there's a consistent rate of scoring to keep me interested or at least some real effort going on.
3. (And this is my main gripe) most blokes use it as a topic to talk about when they don't have anything interesting to say. I have to pay attention to this crappy sport so that when I'm in the company of other males I can join in with "Oh wasn't it striking how Russia folded against Spain considering how well they played against Holland?" instead of topics not covered by The Sun.
Most of my friends are female in part, I think, because there's none of this talking about crap that blokes do. Even when talking to colleagues in IT you find that they've just swapped football for some weird fanatasism for brands of technology or operating systems.
Maybe it's male friendships I'm disappointed in.
