Unexpected merchandise...

[theoriginaldig]

I'm just taking a break from work, smoking a small bowl of Amphora Full Aroma, having recently restarted pipe smoking and having opened one of a variety of tobaccos that I'd stored up from past years. I'm browsing the web, looking at pipe sites, and I end up at the French site 'la pipe rit' - I don't speak French, and the Google translate option popped up, so I took it. Well, I did not expect what resulted - pipe-smoking has evidently changed over the past few years! (To be fair, the site's own 'English' option - which I missed - uses more conventional translations.)

Ah yes, the classic blowjob finish.

I believe we call that the money shot.

An English site had a Mastro de Paja listed as a Mastra de Paja, which my phone translated as 'handjob mistress'...

I think it's because in French the word for "stem" is the same as the word for... that other thing.
But maybe some French forum member will be able to tell us more.

Aha, I wondered quite how the translation might have been generated. It's reassuring to see that AI still has some way to do before it has a proper appreciation of how languages work in particular contexts!

I say this because that's how it is in Italian. And in fact eBay censored (now I don't know if it still does) the word "bocchino" (stem in Italian) interpreting it in the other meaning.
Back then many pipe sellers wrote "boccaglio", but the word is a bit funny because boccaglio is this...

Incredible - I had no idea that pipes were such a linguistic minefield!

"Faire le pipe" is to make ze "Blowjob".

Myself, I prefer the natural and classic ones.

Not only that, but the decline in pipe smoking over the past century has dropped the word pipe (pronounced in French as "peep") from the common vernacular. It has since become slang for penis.

I can only imagine the chucking that ensues under this all-new interpretation of Magritte's painting...

Well, in any event welcome to the forum from the State of Kansas in the USA!!

What happens when your pipe gurgles. Do you send it back or call in the experts like Stormy Daniels, enquiring minds want to know!!!
