    Just gonna say, I find this kind of thing adorable

    I will relentlessly make fun of them, but it’s endearing and I’ll go off on anyone else making fun of them

      Literally today heard a preteen at my daughter’s dance class say she was “rawdogging” the parking lot because she was walking around without shoes. No, child. Just… no.

        Man, people my age (39yo millennial) have been using “raw dogging” to mean literally doing anything without some sort of protection or barrier between you and something nasty for a while; not strictly sex without a condom.

        “Ew … You cleaned your toilet without gloves? You just raw dogged that shit?! Bro, I’m going home. Fuck this BBQ.”

      Wait all this time I was supposed to wear a condom while on a flight?

      Oh no I have a lot of phone calls to make.

    Alternatively the phrase suggests a wiener is cooked for protected sex so it wasn’t the best used metaphor in the first place.

      Raw can also refer to the lack of a protective layer. One can rub their skin raw, for example, meaning the skin was rubbed so hard that the top layer was removed. The “cooking” in this case would be the skin healing back. And putting a condom over it for safety.

    I had to explain to my friend that “struggle snuggle” is not when your cat is trying to get away from you while you hug it.

    Reminds me of the time I had to explain to a friend that twat was not a synonym for twit.

      You’re friend wasn’t the first to make such a mistake. There’s a poem from 1841 by Robert Browning, called Pippa Passes, in which he misunderstands the meaning of the word “twat.” Apparently he thought it was the name for part of a nun’s outfit.

      But at night, brother howlet, over the woods,
      Toll the world to thy chantry;
      Sing to the bats’ sleek sisterhoods
      Full complines with gallantry:
      Then, owls and bats,
      Cowls and twats,
      Monks and nuns, in a cloister’s moods,
      Adjourn to the oak-stump pantry!

      I once used the word twat around my then-girlfriend and she “corrected” me, insisting it was pronounced “twah”. Turns out she thought people saying it were trying to use the French word toit and mispronouncing it. No idea why she thought anybody would want to call somebody else a French roof.

      I learnt that when I was about 7 after shouting it at my dad in front of a crowd of people.

        That reminds me of the time I went to a roller disco as a child, having just seen Mr Bean at the pictures that afternoon (this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bean_(film)). There’s a bit at the end where Mr Bean’s in a convertible waving at everyone he sees, when this hard knock rides up on a motorbike and responds with the middle finger, so Mr Bean naïvely copies the gesture and ends up sitting high up on the back of the seat giving the finger to everyone and no one. Ironically enough, I was too young to know what the finger was, so I just naïvely copied the gesture myself and started skating in circles around this sports hall giving the finger to everyone and no one. I don’t remember anyone doing anything about it either!
