Josh: I am tired of being number two! Number two stinks!
Drake: [snickering] Number two stinks...
Josh: Grow up!

A situation where one character says a word or phrase in a non "Double Entendre" (or sometimes not even Innocent Innuendo) manner, but another takes it the wrong way and starts laughing. Bonus points if the first person tells the second to "grow up" or something similar. The amused character saying "That's What She Said!" has the same effect.

Heh heh..."grow..."

Compare That Came Out Wrong (Heh heh... "came") and Accidental Innuendo (Heh heh... in-your-endo). Contrast Innocent Innuendo (Heh heh... "innuendo" again) and oh would you be quiet!!? note 

And yes, like That's What She Said, this can definitely be Truth in Television, depending on how often you hang out with immature people.

An especially immature version is that one character (often a girl) actually says some "naughty" word, like "butt", but in a rather non-sexual situation, and another character (often a boy) stops listening to her, just snickering to his mates: "Heh, heh, she said 'butt'."

Another childish version is for not sexual per se, but cheeky words like if a character says "I would like to X, but Y", another character says "Heh heh, you said "butt"."

Another version, mainly used ironically, is when one character says a "naughty" word or an intentional Double Entendre and another character replies "Heh heh, you said X", regarding some other things that they said. For example: "I have a big butt" — "Heh heh, you said 'have.'"

Compare Inherently Funny Words, Lampshaded Double Entendre, One-Letter Pun and Fun with Homophones. Super-Trope to LOL, 69 and Uranus Is Showing. See also Scunthorpe Problem when it applies to computer programming.

Heh heh, you sai — *GACK!*


Heh, heh, they're Examples:

    open/close all folders 

    Heh heh, Anime and Manga 
  • Azumanga Daioh: A variant of this gag that sadly gets Lost in Translation occurs during the Okinawa Trip arc. Tomo's amusement at finding a box of chinsuko (a kind of shortbread cookie that originated in Okinawa), and later some ukoncha (turmeric tea), comes from the fact that they sound like chinko (a euphemism for the penis) and unko (a euphemism for poop), respectively.
  • In the Gag Dub of Hetalia: Axis Powers:
    • In season one, Germany and Italy see a scientist giving a lecture:
      Scientist: ...our research has but cracked the surface...
      Italy: Hehehe... that professor guy doesn't know it, but he just said butt crack!
    • And in season five when Turkey comments on how different Germany and Prussia's personalities are:
      Austria: Maybe they're different on the surface, but when it comes to clothes, they share an anal-retentive streak.
      Turkey: Hahaha! You just said anal!
  • Comes up in Hunter × Hunter. Belerainte is a professional Hunter hired by Queen Sevanti of the Kakin Kingdom as a bodyguard. She deploys him to oversee Kurapika's demonstration of activating Nen, or latent superpowers (which, as a pro Hunter, Belerainte can already use). His fearsome status is completely brought down by the very first thing he says:
    Sevanti: Report back to me if he teaches Nen correctly! In intimate detail!
    Belerainte: [quietly to himself] Uh huh huh. She said "intimate."
  • Kaguya-sama: Love Is War has a chapter where Kaguya is shown to have a grade-schooler's sense of humor when it comes to "naughty words" due to her ridiculously sheltered upbringing. When Fujiwara starts talking about how weird her dog's begging stance looks, Kaguya has to hold in her laughter because the term for "beg" (chinchin) is a homophone for "penis". Once Fujiwara realizes what's going on she mercilessly says "Chinchin!" over and over just to make Kaguya laugh.

    Heh heh, Comic Books 
  • Big Trouble in Little China:
    • Jack does this to the villain in the first comic.

      Jack: Yes! I want Wang really bad—oh, ha ha. Very funny. I see what you're doing! He stole that joke from me!

  • Deadpool: Non-sexual or scatological version done in an issue of his first series. Deadpool meets the zombie-controlling villain known as the Black Talon, and cracks up at his costume's resemblance to a chicken. After a few comments even the zombies start to giggle, leading to this exchange:
    Black Talon: [to zombies] Hey! Not a peep out of you!
    Deadpool: The chicken... just... said... peep! Bwahahaha!
  • Miracleman: At the beginning of Book Two, Miracleman compares himself to Tinkerbell from Peter Pan when explaining to Jason Oakey how his force field works. After Jason answers that he's not familiar with Peter Pan, Miracleman explains that Tinkerbell is a "fairy", which causes Jason to laugh due to the word sometimes being used as a homophobic slur.
  • Spider-Man: Spider-Man isn't above this either, occasionally.
    Spider-Man: [talking to Ben Grimm] That's the thing, Thing. We don't know. Hehe, I said "thing-thing."

    Crew: [laughter]
    Dodge: Let me re-phrase that. It's going to make things difficult on all of us as well. But if we just work together as a team, I'm sure we can handle ourselves...
    Crew: [laughter]
    Dodge: Comport ourselves as professionals. That is all.
  • The Meg: When the submarine with Lori at the helm reaches the thermocline, Toshi and the Wall laugh their asses off about the prospect of "penetrating" the icy layer below them.

  • In Transformers (2007), some of Sam's classmates laugh when he says "Sextant" and again when he says "Seamen". Both times, the teacher holds up a sign reading "Quiet", with a resigned look on his face. Sam's class is clearly sophomoric.
  • In Used Cars, the car dealership is doing an illegal broadcast by tapping into a football game and substituting their own commercial for the video feed. One of the car dealers has a deathly fear of red painted cars, and when they cut in the commercial and the flood lights are turned on, he realizes it's not a dark blue car, but a red one, so he says, "What the fuck is this, Rudy, a red car?" One of the technicians that arranged for the illegal tap in turns to Rudy and says, "Did he say 'fuck'? That's an FCC violation!" As if what they're already doing isn't...

    Heh heh, Literature 
  • In 36 Children, a non-fiction account of a young teacher's year in a poor Harlem school in the mid 60's, one of piece of advice he's given by an older teacher is to skip over Emily Dickinson's poem "There Is No Frigate Like A Book", even though it's in the textbook for the English class.

  • In one book of Animorphs, Rachel is accidentally split in two (regenerative morphs...long story). Jake deduces that, while her wild-and-bloodthirsty half loves to fight, her kind-but-cowardly half got her sense of duty. Nice Rachel's reaction is basically, "Heh heh, you said 'doody'."

  • In the Jorge Luis Borges short story, "The Cult of the Phoenix":
    There are no decent words by which to call it, but it is understood that all words somehow name it or, rather, inevitably allude to it, and so I have said some insignificant thing in conversation and have seen adepts smile or grow uncomfortable because they sensed that I had touched upon the Secret.
  • Done a couple times by Karrin Murphy in Love Hurts, a short story of The Dresden Files. This is mildly out of character and is one of the reader's first clues that she and Dresden have been, as they say later, "whammied."
  • House of Robots: In chapter 22, when Trip asks Sammy about the possibility of his mother fixing E, he says that she will, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. In response, Trip snort-giggles and says "You said 'butts'!".

    • In episode "The Lunar Excitation," Leonard gives an overview of their experiment, mentioning that the laser beam on its return would be too weak to be seen by the naked eye.

    • In other episode, Sheldon compares himself to Professor X of X-Men fame, noting that if Professor X has X-men and Sheldon's last name starts with a C, that would mean that the rest of the group are Sheldon's "C-men". The rest of the group finds this hilarious.
    • And in yet another where they are playing a strategy board game involving the collection of cards representing supplies, Sheldon keeps asking the other guys if they have wood. He can't figure out why this makes them laugh so much.
  • Simon Partridge from an episode of Blackadder II constantly takes what someone says as sounding "a bit rude."

      "When I look at you, I no longer see students. I see seamen. From the moment you came onboard, I saw seamen inside of you. More importantly, you stopped giggling at the word 'seamen', which is the mark of a true seaman."
  • The Daily Show gave us the memorable moment where Jon Stewart was reduced to a fit of giggles after Will Ferrell said "Well, when you come on a Will Ferrell joint..."
  • Doctor Who has an odd example without the innuendo, the humor mostly coming from the Doctor's childishness.

    The Doctor: [giggling] I made him say "comfy chairs"!

  • In the Elementary episode " The One Percent Solution", Holmes adopts a pair of roosters (named Romulus and Remus) and spends the entire episode calling them "cocks" and attempting to get Watson to do the same. Eventually, we get this:
    Joan: Why is Romulus outside my door?
    Sherlock: That's Remus!
    Joan: I don't care which cock I am holding. I just want to know how it got there. [beat] Okay, congratulations. You got me to say it!
    Sherlock: I don't know if you've settled on an epitaph yet, but it does occur to me that would look fantastic on a tombstone.
  • In an episode of Enlisted the platoon is on sweeping detail for an upcoming parade. Since this is mostly for horse-related messes they refer to it as "Doody Duty."

  • How I Met Your Mother uses this a lot as well, although the humor is not explicitly pointed out — it is only followed up with another character saying "yeah, you did" and is often intentional.
    • There was a whole episode revolving around it. When Robin started her own TV Show, people watched it because they found it amusing that she constantly used the word "but um", as if it meant bottom.

    Stephen: As in the word canonical.
    • All this after a round that discussed the giss (pronounced jizz) of birds note

    Salem: Hee hee hee! You said 'number two'!
    • Another example:
      Sabrina: Nothing like being embraced in the bosom of your family on the most special day of the year.

  • The Todd on Scrubs is prone to this.
    • Also, in one episode Elliot is able to indirectly identify Turk and JD over the phone because they laugh at a patient saying the word "duty".

  • Befitting his Manchild tendencies, Johnny Cage of Mortal Kombat occasionally indulges in this. Even when he's older and more mature, his sense of humor clearly hasn't kept up (much to the irritation of everyone else). For example, from Mortal Kombat X:

    Erron Black: (muttering in disgust) Child.

    Undine: ...then maybe sh—it's gone after all. For now.
    Heartful Punch snorts
    Heartful Punch: Sorry, you said shits.

    Heh heh, Web Original

  • One of the explanations for the chosen pronunciation of "Pujol" in the Fat, French and Fabulous episode on WWII spy Juan Pujol Garcia.

    Barby: Heh heh, lake.
  • Dom Fera's Genie With a Dirty Mind has its main joke being that the titular genie laughs immaturely at his master making unintentional innuendos. This is in fact all the genie is shown to do, as we never see him grant wishes.

    Genie: (laughs) I bet I do!

  • The Nostalgia Critic's Commercials videos have him break down in fits of Corpsing at the mention of "The Wonder Boner" (a tool for pulling the bones out of fish). The "Johnson" (boat motor) jingle (especially "It's just you, your kids, and your Johnson!"), and the "Wet Banana" (a Slip 'n' Slide knockoff) ad ("The whole gang loves to ride the Wet Banana! Could that be Mom on the Wet Banana!? It is!") bring him much joy as well. We like to think the ad's writers knew what they were doing as well

  • In Avatar: The Last Airbender, Professor Zei mentions the buttresses in the library, at which Aang and Sokka snicker. The professor asks them about this, and they reply, "We just like architecture". It must have to do with the word "butt" being in the word buttresses.
    • The Sequel Series, The Legend of Korra:
      • Bumi, the middle child and non-bender of Avatar Aang has a propensity to do this due to his Manchild nature. The whole manchild-ness is part of a coping mechanism to deal with the fact that he was not only overlooked by Aang due to not being an Airbender but because he was the only nonbender of Aang's three children.
      • When Kya mentions the word "duty" again, she takes a split second to tell Bumi "Don't laugh" before continuing.
  • Beavis and Butt-Head:
    • The titular duo are the Trope Namers, as they are known for being able to find sexual innuendo in literally anything. A perfect example of this can be seen in Beavis and Butt-Head Do America:

    • "No Laughing" has this in spades, as they're made to promise not to laugh... just in time for Sex Ed class.
      • Really, the two could do this with about anything. One music video had them discussing shiny pants, with Beavis eventually saying "But I DO shine my pants!" and then Butt-Head pointing out that he said "douche."

A few early episodes have them laughing at the term "homeowners insurance", presumably at the "homeow."
    • Subverted in their 2011 return, while watching a clip of Jersey Shore. Vinny yells about how much Snooki "loves hot salami," they were unimpressed.
      Beavis: Oh, yeah, yeah, "she loves hot salami". See, he means schlong.
    • But played straight in another 2011 episode where they need to pass a standardised test to keep the school from losing its funding. The teachers spend the whole episode cramming as much as possible into their heads, and finally...

      Judge: "Action". [Face Palm as duo starts laughing again]

    Pillage Master: The second test is... Laying Waste!
    Dave: [snickers] Sorry.
    [Dave tries to contain his laughter through the following instructions]
    Pillage Master: You must lay waste here! Then you must lay waste over there. Then, when you feel you can no longer lay waste, you- [notices Dave's laughing] Alright, what is so funny?!
    Dave: [calms down] ...Nothing.

  • "Duty/doody" in an episode of Invader ZIM.
  • Recurring Jimmy Two-Shoes character Butley the butler has this as a running gag. Every time his name is uttered near Jimmy or Beezy, expect snickering from them. It ended up becoming a plot point in one episode where one of Butley's attempts to make Beezy act more sophisticated was to say his own name until he stopped laughing. He fails.
  • In the shop class episode of King of the Hill, Bobby is working on a project for shop and Hank advises him to "clamp (his) butt joint". Bobby snickers at Hank who is oblivious to the joke and responds with: "You're right, joke's on me. You should use a miter joint, that would look better."
  • Two examples occur in The Penguins of Madagascar.
    • One is the duty/doody variant between Mort (the one who says "you said 'doody'!") and Maurice in the episode "All King, No Kingdom."
    • The other occurs in "Cat's Cradle," when the penguins rub a stray cat's butt against a tree to leave his scent behind fool an animal control officer. When the penguins and the cat are in hiding, the animal control officer starts making comments involving phrases like "ifs, ands or buts," "the bottom of this," etc. and Private (who is the youngest penguin) starts snickering. He then loses it when their leader, Skipper, remarks that he hasn't seen Private like this since that time they were in Butztown, PA.

      Benson: UGH! When the game starts...
    • In "TGI Tuesday", Benson is describing the kinds of parties held at the Parkside Lux ballroom.

    • In "How The Test Was Won", when Principal Skinner used a giant prop pencil while at a school assembly on tests, Bart naturally seized the opportunity and ran with it, with the oblivious Skinner only making things worse.
      Bart: What kind of pencil do we use again?
      Skinner: Number two! Take a number two!
      [kids laugh]
      Bart: Looks like you took a big number two!
      Skinner: Yes, as you can see, I am holding a number two in my hands, enjoying the weight and feel of it.
      [more laughter]
    • In a rare example involving Lisa being the one to laugh, in "Lisa's Date With Density", she gets caught snickering (at something outside the window) in music class. Her teacher, having had his (unheard) lesson interrupted, says "Miss Simpson! Do you find something funny about the word tromboner?!" Lisa then has to fight the urge to laugh while trying to explain what she was really laughing at before.
    • In "Brother's Little Helper", when Springfield Elementary is hosting a fire safety event, Bart gets a kick out of Principal Skinner saying the names of various firefighting implements.
      Bart: What's that stuff?
      Skinner: This is retardant.
      Bart: *snickers* It sure is! What's this thing?
      Skinner: This is a hose-lengthener.
      Bart: *snickers harder* You need one! What about this?
      Skinner: Why don't you read the label? It's a king-size flamer!
      Bart: *laughs hysterically*
    • In "The Bob Who Grew Too Much", Bart catches Sideshow Bob menacing Lisa with a spear taken from a model caveman:
      Bart: The jig is up, Bob! Return the spear to the Homo erectus! [laughs] Homo erectus! Where has that word been all my life?!
    • In "Tales From The Public Domain", Homer is retelling The Odyssey to the family. Within the retelling, upon receiving the Trojan Horse, King Priam (Ned Flanders) proudly declares, "Now throughout history when people get wood, they'll think of Trojans!".
      Homer: (snickering) Heh-heh, "Trojans".
      Bart: What're you laughing at, Dad?
      Homer: If I'm laughing at what I think I am, it's very funny.
  • The Robot Chicken sketch "Bring a Sidekick to Work Day" has Green Arrow's sidekick Speedy troll Wonder Woman by pretending to innocently ask her to identify certain parts of an arrow he is holding (i.e., the "shaft" and the "tip"), then laughs at Diana obliviously making handjob innuendos.
  • In "Special Mom Day Meal" from Sid the Science Kid, Susie explains the digestive system to Sid's class, and that it takes the good stuff from food and uses it.

  • Subverted in the Sonic Boom episode, "Mayor Knuckles".
    Mayor: Are you prepared to do your civic duty?
    Knuckles: [cracking up] You said 'civic'!
  • South Park sometimes uses this with Kenny, an example being after Cartman telling Chef he has delcious ballsnote .
  • An early installment of Space Ghost Coast to Coast had Space Ghost interviewing health guru Susan Powter, who called him "quite a specimen." Cut to Brak and his brother Sisto doing Beavis And Butt-head:
    Uh-huh-uh...she said "specimen"!
  • Teacher's Pet features this trope as a running gag in the episode "Inspector Leadready II", where Ian Wazselewski laughs at Spot when he says "touche" due to mishearing it as "tushy", laughs again when Spot actually says "tushy" and is told to not say a word before he can react to Spot mentioning Lake Titicaca.

    • Hank: "Careful, these things can be booby trapped! ...hehheh, booby."

    Heh heh, Real Life 
  • At least one letter by Cicero makes note of accidentally obscene utterances (such as "illam dicam", literally "I shall say that", but sounds like a particularly obscene word for "clitoris"), making this Older Than Feudalism.
  • This article (on knitting using plant fibers) mentions the taxonomic names of four plants. Apparently the author thinks taxonomic names are scary, because every time, she feels the need to put some variation of "hah, I slipped another one in!"
  • A local radio station in Saint Louis started a contest called First of All on the morning zoo. They read a news article and you have to pick out the innuendo. Example: news story about a robbery where the robber entered through the backdoor...answer: backdoor. So, First of All: backdoor. Has caused a breakdown in normal conversation for those who listen.
    • On one of the shows on the BBC radio station Radio 1, there is even a game called 'innuendo bingo'.
  • Vladimir Nabokov, when describing his book Lolita said it "left [him] with the most pleasurable afterglow." Cue snickers and giggles.
  • A common response by chemistry students when their professors mention the chemical fucitol, or by students learning Spanish when the teacher gets to the verb poner (to put), whose past tense yo puse, tú pusiste, etc. sounds like a certain word for, well, a cat.
    • Compounds when the word for "combs" (los peines) gets involved. Start to say "I put the combs in my hair" in Spanish, and watch every twelve-year-old in hearing distance start laughing. Not to mention that peine is only a single letter away from (and sounds very much like) pene...which means something much much different.
  • We had that same wall when doing the classes of reflexive verbs. These are the -erse, -irse....and the -arse verb groups. Never mind that the Spanish for "arse" is el culo and that "arse" means nothing in Spanish, nor that this would only be encountered in the verb infinitive form and never on its own. Spanish really did become a whole load of arse for us that day...
  • The group of organic compounds, aldehydes, since the suffix used in naming them is -anal. Special mention to the aldehyde butanal.
  • Programming is rampant with this. No one doesn't giggle with they first hear that "friends can access private members."
  • In one of many, many, many hilarious moments in the behind-the-scenes footage on the The Lord of the Rings DVDs, Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan have this exchange while discussing their characters' adventures in the second film:
    Billy: [talking about Fangorn Forest] But within that, they're met by Treebeard, so they go from being prisoners of war to, like, the very bosom of nature, and it kind of helps them become hobbits again.
    Dom: Mmm... bosom.
    Billy: ...Did I say "bosom"?
    Dom: [whispers reverentially] Yeah.
  • Teaching people about certain things or words that have different meaning can sometimes have this. Teachers may say "Okay, get your laughs out now".
    • Sometimes, sheet music will abbreviate Ritardando with "Ritard", and sometimes people in band will say "That's retarded" when you play something wrong.
    • "Cleavage" in Geology, and "Cleavage Furrow" in Biology. Also "Cleavage Theory" in political science.
    • Foreign languages sometimes have words that sound like this. For example, a common verb in Polish, "być" is pronounced as "Bitch", but it doesn't mean it.
    • Or the time American biologists put together an acronym that resulted in their new protein being called SHAG, and then wondered why the British members of the audience cracked up every time they mentioned it.
    • The Swedish language contains a number of these for English speakers, for instance, we have "fack" (compartment like the ones in banks, for instance), "kant" (edge), and "kock" (chef).
    • Mark Twain discusses one in German:
      "I heard lately of a worn and sorely tried American student who used to fly to a certain German word for relief when he could bear up under his aggravations no longer — the only word whose sound was sweet and precious to his ear and healing to his lacerated spirit. This was the word Damit. It was only the sound that helped him, not the meaning; and so, at last, when he learned that the emphasis was not on the first syllable, his only stay and support was gone, and he faded away and died."
  • Some people can't help giggling when hearing or saying "cockpit".
  • In Linguistics 101, trying to avert this with PP (preposition phrase) is doomed to fail at some point.
  • Uranus is prone to this no matter how it's pronounced. Some people say 'your-anus' and others say 'urine-ous'.
    • The pronunciation "seh-venth-pla-net" has been suggested.
      • Besides the planet, there was also the Greek god of the same name. It doesn't help that he generally behaved like a real asshole, especially to his own children.
    • How about "you-ran-us"?
    • "I'm sorry, Fry, but astronomers renamed Uranus in 2620 to end that stupid joke once and for all." "Oh. What's it called now?" "Urrectum."
    • Now that Uranus was discovered to have cloud tops made of hydrogen sulfide...
  • Visit a church around Palm Sunday and you're bound to see kids snickering about Jesus riding an "ass" through town (although some versions of the Bible use "colt" instead) or how one "shalt not covet thy neighbour's [...] ass".
  • The French language makes it possible to do this with nearly any phrase, by turning "he's (verbing) (noun)" to "he's verbing his noun, nudge nudge", requiring a good dose of particularly unsubtle delivery ("he's rinsing the noodles" to "he's rinsing his noodle, if you get my meaning"). Lowbrow snickering ensues.
  • Separated by a Common Language has a fair share of these. "Rubber" meaning both a eraser and a condom, "Fag" being a cigarette and a derogatory term for male homosexuals....
    • The American expression "blow someone off" means to dismiss someone or not follow through with plans made with them. In British English, it sounds like something else entirely.
    • "Thongs" are a slang for a type of sandal featuring a "Y" shaped strap that goes betwen the big toe and everything else. In the US (Sans Hawai'i) and Canada, a "Thong" refers to a type of lingere worn by women that leave very little to the imagination (because of their resemblence to the strap on sandals). Naturally? Many works change this for obvious reasons. In Japan, the strap on your sandal breaking is an omen of bad luck - sometimes people giggle because anime&Manga depicting this sometimes trnaslate this as a character's "Thong breaking".
  • Often happens when certain words share sexual or insulting connotations in academia and other contexts:
    • A common joke in classical bands is to say "That's retarded" or "Retard!" - because that context means "you should play it slower".
      • Similarly, Bread retarders.
    • "Cleavage Furrow" or "Cleavage". One professor said "Okay, everyone get your laughs out now."
    • Rapeseed - This one tends to raise eyebrows rather than laugh.
    • Teachers who teach Sex ed have to constantly put up with this since the class matures at a different rate from one another.
  • Other languages as well. In Polish, a common verb is "być"... which is phonetically pronounced "Bitch". One Tumblr story detailed a Polish-as-a-second language class in the 1980s giggling when a nun refused to say "być", causing the teacher to repeatedly say "No! It's 'Bitch'!", and the class (made up of multiple age groups) were stifling laughter.
  • This must be the reason that the mythological animal "Cockatrice" got so miffed that its look will petrify you. Maybe it helps to call it (somewhat incorrect but the difference is minimal except to the professional monster hunter) "Basilisk" instead.
  • Well-respected broadcast journalist Anderson Cooper is particularly prone to this, and even has a reputation for cracking up on air. He has openly admitted to having "the sense of humor of a twelve-year-old"; previous culprits responsible for his losing it include "pussy willow", "titmouse", and "I want to give you all twelve inches"note . All the more hilarious because Cooper is a Peabody Award-winner with a reputation for levelheaded, comprehensive, serious news coverage, including Hurricane Katrina, the Cedar Revolution, and the tsunami in Sri Lanka.
  • Amongst people living in Mexico, and those of Mexican's descent, the act of lampshading (and crafting) Double Entendres is elevated to an art-form... Hell! A way of life, even! This phenomenon is known as "albur", and it's almost a rite of passage for those living there, as you can expect to be endlessly mocked and/or degraded by those that employ it, if you can't master "albur" in response.
  • Any history teacher covering the Yuan-Mongol invasion of Vietnam should be prepared to deal with giggling from students. In Vietnamese, "Mongol(ia)" is transliterated as "Mông Cổ", homophonic to "butt" and "neck". Yuan-Mongol is transliterated as "Nguyên Mông", homophonic with "intact butt". Given that the invaders were soundly and humiliatingly defeated three times, let's just say they didn't leave Vietnam with unkicked asses.
  • This MMA bout was fought between Zac Chavez and Danny Mainus (Main-us). Cue a slew of inadvertent puns involving "My-anus" and the actions taking place in the ring.
    Schiavello: My-anus is in a bit of pain, here!
  • Scissoringnote  is probably more likely to bring to mind sex positions note  than IR spectroscopy in an immature A level chemistry class. "Cleavage" can also be used as a term for the breaking of chemical bonds.
    • There's also the synaptic knob in biology, described here as a "bulbous enlargement".
  • Lake Titicaca is prone to getting this reaction. Just try saying it in a middle or high school geography class.
  • Djibouti as well. A lot of Model UN clubs have had immature students saying "Djibouti is being invaded by [country] with the aid of Greece."
  • The Israeli Minister of Education Shai Piron (in the 33rd Israeli cabinet) was unable to continue a speech before the Knesset because he started giggling about the word "penetration".
  • In French, the Prut river (Romanian-Ukrainian-Moldavian border) is often transcribed as "Prout" ("Prut" is also used, but "Prout" is more common), to the delight of children and teenagers in geography classes.note  In French, "Prout" is also childish slang for a fart (both the act itself and the onomatopoeia). The 1990s footage of a news anchorman having an uncontrollable fit of laughters while announcing the "Prout" was flooding has become memetic.
    • For English speakers learning French, "phoque" [a seal, as in the marine mammal], and, in 1968, the verb "s'accoutumer" [to become accustomed to, but virtually homophonous with the "Laugh-In" catch phrase "Sock it to me!"
  • This article about Amazon developing smart glasses for their digital assistant app Alexa was shared on Twitter with this tweet with the tagline "Amazon Echo Frames glasses lets Alexa sit on your face". Cue the jokes and eye-rolling.
  • No class of German physics or chemistry students can keep a straight face when it comes to what would be, translated, the "fuck's diffusion law". (Factly stating that it is named after its discoverer Adolf Fick will not be helpful at all.)
  • One particularly dangerous type of dust storm is called a "haboob".
  • The Twitter page for restaurant chain Jersey Mike's Subs once innocently posed the question, "How do you top your sub?" As you can imagine, people responded not with their sandwich preferences but with something else entirely. An edit later surfaced of the tweet combined with the comedy account Dril saying "Blocked. Blocked. Blocked. You're all blocked." Jersey Mike's later made another tweet that said "How do you top it?" with a picture of their toppings.
  • A French meme consists of yelling "Titre!" when someone lets out an innuendo, as in "Good title for a porno", e.g. "Wait until I'm all the way in".
  • Along food available in the English-speaking world, there's small salted appetizers named "Petite Bites". Due to this name being a false friend in French (it would mean "tiny dicks"), and one ad using a slogan saying "Petite bites, big compliments" ("compliment" having the same meaning in English and French) with a woman laughing in front of a man, the product is a meme in France.
  • And here's one for the birds — specifically, the booby and the titmouse.
  • Geography lessons are made funnier when the teacher talks about the Thailand province and its capital city "Phuket".
  • There's a British dessert named "spotted dick". This trope is allegedly the reason why the British Houses of Parliament's restaurant menu renamed it into "spotted Richard".
  • In some languages, the acronym FAQ, when read as a word, sounds like "fuck".
  • A Mexican-based food company, "Grupo Bimbo" and its American branch "Bimbo Bakeries". Americans are less likely to laugh (if they live in the southwest)
  • Overlapping with Unfortunate Name:
    • "Fred Fuchs". (It's pronounced "Fooks" in its native German)
    • "Akshit" and "Dikshit" tend to make english speakers laugh when they are pronounced phonetically - they're natively pronounced "Akshee" and "Dikshee".
    • "Dumas" is sometimes pronounced as "Dumb ass".
  • "Dam" gets a lot of chuckles due to sounding exactly the same as "Damn" which is a slang.

    Heh heh, Other 
  • From a biography from an older version of Tally Hall’s old website:
    5. rob was reading zubin’s bio. he noticed that zubin’s favorite stage of mitosis is telophase. rob thinks zubin likes telophase because this is when the cleavage furrow develops, and zubin’s one-track mind is amused by the word cleavage.
  • While group-interviewing Mark Hamill, Wayne Knight, Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche, voice director Andrea Romano recalls how animators often study a voice actor's body language as reference for animating the character:
    Romano: Even though you're not really using your body, you are in fact using your body.
    Paulsen: [nudges LaMarche] Actually, many people have used your body.
    LaMarche: [fake sobbing] I'm tired of it, I'm sick of it! I'm a human being!
  • The Brewing Network: Frequently used, especially by Doc. At one point they were using it so often listeners complained and they had an episode of The Session where using the joke was banned.
  • A birthday card shows a man and his wife at a deli, and him saying "We're here to buy some SMOKED HAM! Heh heh." The interior states "George turned everything into a sex joke, whether it made sense or not."
  • An employment ad for a McDonald's in Germany had the innocuous phrase "Wir suchen DICH!" ("We are looking for YOU!"), but it was memed with the English caption "You're doing WHAT?!" Because in English, that sentence looks like, well...

(Heh heh... "hang out")
