Learning the German word for "bagpipe".
And you didn't share it with us? Does it sound worse than the bagpipes when you speak it aloud?

If that doesn't sound like a euphemism for "scrotum", nothing does.
I think that's an amazing think to smile over.
This popped up in my Tumblr feed: Park Bench
I was chatting with a friend, and we were talking about how much worry you have over kids and it reminded me of when daughter had just started school, aged 4.
The health nurses had come round to test all the kids' hearing. They were tested in groups of 3 and had to react in some way when they heard a sound. In daughter's group, one girl had to put a toy brick on the table, another had to put a toy figure in a box and daughter had to clap her hands.
A week or so later, we got a letter to say that daughter had seriously failed the hearing test and needed to go to the specialist clinic for further examinations.
We were horrified. How could we have missed the fact that her hearing was poor in all this time? Was I really so wrapped up in work that I hadn't noticed? Guilt guilt guilt......
In the weeks waiting for the appointment, hubby and I would creep up behind her and whisper to see if she could hear us, and she always could. We were baffled.
So, the day of the appointment came, and two worried parents took her for the test. Again, she had to react to sounds by putting a toy brick on the table. And she tested perfectly - no problem at all. So the nurse said there was no need for further appointments, goodbye.
When we got to the car, we told her how puzzled we were.
"Well, when we did the first test, the other two got to put toys on the table. I wanted to do that - I didn't want to just clap my hands. So I didn't."
