I don't like it when they apply suction. Just use the tongue and bob the head rhythmically.

I could take Sean Connery in a fight... I could definitely take him.

Same reason it is called a Hamburger when there is no ham in it.

I always wondered about that.
Why do they call it a 'hot dog' if it isn't made out of dog meat?

Same reason you say the alarm went OFF when it goes on.

Blowjob: verb. A job performed with the intent of making the male blow. Derived from the french word 'le blow job' meaning 'the job of making man blow'.

Y'know, I know the answer, but I'm going to see how far this thread will go before someone figures it out.

Duh. To burn something would make it burninated, therefore to lock something would make it lockinated. I thought you had more intelligence kitten.

Does that really make a difference? perhaps you would prefer "c0ck sucking", as reported by WordNet.
Anyway, I agree with PG.

Bah. The acts of love are intermingled like watercolors.
<agree that "blow"job is a dumb name. Suckjob, however, has two stop-plosives [sounds in which the flow of air is momentarily interrupted, then released] next to each other, and thus flows less easily than blowjob.>

Haven't we had the "Why are certain phrases in English stupid?" thread already?
Anyway, here's one to chew on (that I think I mentioned in the aforementioned thread):
Why is it called a "hot water heater" when you don't need to heat hot water?
Ooo...and a lesser-known (and lesser-funny) bonus:
How can there be "peacekeeper missiles"?

I don't think that one is too ironic. Peacekeepers aren't meant to be fired.

Because back in the day a prostitute used to be referred to affectionately as a "blow".
|
I'll stop using the term "colored" as soon as they do.
I'm somewhat of an enigma: an atheist conservative.

That one doesn't work here, they are called peacekeepers because that is what they do. They scare foes (well some) into peace. If you had one pointed at your backyard I bet you would be more opt to stay peaceful

no, it is a water heater. only ignorants call it a hot water heater...same people that say PIN number or VIN number...or add an 's' at the name of store...i went to kmarts. no, you went to kmart. and i would dare to say the same people that drop the 's' when you get change back...here you go, $.22 cent. no. i refuse to take change back when someone does that.
in the above cases, it isn't the fault of the language, it is the fault/stupidity/lazyness of the user (compared to the previous examples where it is the fault of the language).
and yes, i know my post is full of bad english

It has nothing to do with ham. It was named after the German city "Hamburg". Strangely enough, some British restaurants will actually serve you ham when you ask for a hamburger, and even go so far as to label proper hamburgers as "beefburgers".

It has nothing to do with ham and everything to do with the city of Hamburg in Germany. Likewise with Frankfurters and Frankfurt, and Sandwiches with the Earl of Sandwich (not a joke.)
