Name that part. Words patients use for their own anatomy.

Ever searched in a patients' room for what you thought she said she needed to "watch her pocketbook" , she staring at you and you staring at her. Then finally saying, mam what color is your pocketbook because I don't see a pocket book here. Only to have her say, no get my washtub out of the drawer, my washcloth and soap. I always like to wash my pocketbook before I go anywhere. Especially down for tests. And close that curtain, too. Then you say, Oh. ;)

"Wang" sounds like something from a Chinese restaurant! "Boballas sounds Italian????" ROFLMAO

ROFL! I'm "multi-cultural." (Really, but I won't get into that...) Anyway, I never knew what a schnitzel really was until I went to Germany. Then when I saw it laying there all flat and breaded it just seemed so wrong to me! ROFLMAO!!!! :chuckle

OMG this is funny....I'm having a weak bladder moment....:chuckle

:beer: Did you eat the Schnitzel? Did you like it?

I guess you could compare it with what they call "chicken fried" here in the States.

Yes, I ate the schnitzel. I love schnitzel. It just took me a while to get over the fact it wasn't what my mother said it was. :D

I told my brother, the other day, that I told about his schnitzel on the Internet. I thought he was going to choke to death! LOL!

The Wiener Schnitzel restaurant has the translation completely wrong, they should call it the "Wiener Wurst" if they sell hotdogs, that way their name matches the shape of their product better :D "Wiener Wurst" for large size and "Wiener Wuerstchen" for small size. :chuckle

So anyone naming their equipment "schnitzel" needs to rename it "Wurst" or "Wuerstchen" accordingly ROFL

I wonder how the chain stays in business LOL

I think the "wiener" thing (which, if memory serves, refers to Vienna?) comes from our nickname for what you would call wurst, which is wienie ("weenee").

Probably they chose Wiener Schnitzel (sp?) because they wanted to sound a little more classy than "hot dog stand."

LOL

And of course how this ties in would be that there are certain similarities in the shape (and perhaps size?) between the foodstuff and the body part....

We humans are something else, aren't we? LOL

Yeah and they probably also don't want anyone thinking that they sell "Wiener dogs" at their restaurant, (those cute litte dachshund) so they called it the Wiener Schnitzel.

I wonder if they also serve Kaiserschmarrn and Guggelhupf at that place...one of these days I'll stop and go in and see what they have. I doubt you get beer at that place.....

Yes, we humans are something else....it's amazing how things from one culture can get twisted around in a different language/culture.....twisted wieners :lol2:

I guess YONIS is a new term they use to decribe a cliterous.. My gf told me this after hearing it from a hip hop radio station. I suppose its a new "street" term.. If i had to take a wild guess id say they came up with that term in relations to a guys member..

Well, there was the one time a patient asked me to check the boil on her tweety bird, which caused me to question my decision to do a voluntary double shift from nights to days. Suffice it to say that the boil was located in the netherregions of this patient, and "tweetybird" was no sweet little yellow bird, THATS for sure!

I've heard people- usually black people in the South- use "nature" for libido. As in "I can't take that blood pressure pill, it messes with my nature!
