I'd say see above, but I don't know how well it would translate. ;)

M and I have an expression dating back from when we were 14:

"Varsåkåt." -"Task så mycket."

Sounds similiar to the traditional

"Varsågod." -"Tack så mycket."

meaning "Here you are" - "Thank you very much"

BUT literally meaning

"Be so horny." -"Dick so much."

Hey, we came up with it when we were 14...:rolleyes:
 
I'd like to be able to say, "I'm proud of you." to my friend/co-worker who has come a long way in a short time without being afraid of it being misinterpretted, by her or others.
 
Heh...I get to spout off once in a while...and get away with it. One time I came very close though...too close.

It all started with a phone message on my home phone the afternoon of the morning I flew off to work.

A female's voice...that my wife was much curious about.

"Dave, it's between you and ______"

and that was it. A woman calling up my house with that message...needless to say when I got to work and called home to let the wife know...I got the grilling of a lifetime.

"Some chicka called and said that it's between you and ______. What's between you and ______? Is there something that you want to tell me about this chicka?"

Then, the next morning, I got up to the mill and the new manager walks into our department morning toolbox meeting.

"Dave, did y ou get my message?"

"Oh...you must have been the chikca that called my house yesterday then?"

"CHICKA?"

"Yeah...chicka. My wife was a bit upset. wanted to know why some chicka called and would just say that it was between me and _______ ."

"CHICKA?"

"Yeah...chicka. You must have been the chicka. What is between me an ______ then?"

"CHICKA!?"

It was then that I realized that she was mad...at me. I just smiled...and replied...

"YOU called my home and left this message...Dave, it's between you and ______. My wife wanted to know what was between us...were you pregnant or what? You see, you put me in a spot...and she was the one that referred to you as some chicka anyway."

She turned and left.

Everyone was speechless at my calling her 'chicka'. I didn't care at the moment, had she known what I'd gone through with my wife.

What was between me a _____ was a trip...and I 'won'. :cool:

Of course...my wife had a hard time with that whole message. If she knew that the one that left that message was as goodlooking as she was...I'd have probably been in divorce court.:eek:

My favorite though...

"You did it just like I told you too!"

"Yep...even though I knew it wouldn't work too. You should be proud of me...boss.":devil:
