It's biblically accurate.

I mean... It still 100% works and has roughly the same meaning in that context.

"They got destroyed!"

"They got fucked in the ass!"

Same difference πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

When I was younger I used to think a drug addict was someone who did drugs in their attic. I always thought it was strange that people had to go up in their attics to do drugs

At some point when I was a young kid and hadn't learned anything about anything, I got it in my head that "condoms" is an abbreviation for "condiments."

Fast forward to watching the color drain out from my poor mother's face at a restaurant when, after being asked if we needed anything, I calmly and with a completely straight face informed the waitress that we could use some condoms.

[–] Briguy@lemmy.world 15 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Just needed some condom mints

The wrong kind of tingles.

The youngster's precocious, certainly.

When I was still in junior school, our team lost badly at football. I went home and told my parents we were well and truly buggered. (That's what Jamie had said and I thought it sounded appropriately drastic.) Mum gasped and sternly said my name, and Dad sternly said that I shouldn't use that word. I asked why not. Very patiently, he explained to me what it meant. I was a little taken aback and did indeed stop using that word.

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 1 points 2 hours ago

I don't get it, what does it mean? Well and truly buggered sounds very polite to me.

[–] GirthBrooksPLO@lemmy.world 16 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

In all fairness, it the British peoples' fault for coming up with goofy names for non goofy matters.

[–] davidagain@lemmy.world 6 points 17 hours ago

May apologise on behalf of my people. I shall endeavour to only call it rectal intercourse from now on.

[–] rekabis@lemmy.ca 14 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago)

Well… he’s not wrong.

He’s not correct, either; he’s just less wrong than he’s correct.

When I was like 5, I mixed up spectacles with testicles.

'I can't do the test today teacher, I forgot my testicles at home'

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 15 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

When I was 10ish I mixed up organisms with orgasms. Talking to my adult brother-in-law and sister "there are a lot of weird orgasms in this level." Contra.

[–] teslekova@sh.itjust.works 8 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Wow, you really like Contra.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Yeah, but in a weird way

[–] forrgott@lemmy.zip 9 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago)

Had a teacher who would say "quiz-ee" instead of "quiz". He stopped the day he said "test-ee".

Edit: As a bonus, he taught Biology...

[–] orbituary@lemmy.dbzer0.com 39 points 1 day ago

Spectacles, testicles, wallet, watch.

For some reason when I was a kid I thought Spanish and Chinese were somehow related.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Sometimes, they are 🀷🏻

(Specific Spanish and Chinese people, I mean)

[–] bridgeenjoyer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 20 hours ago

Chinish Spanese

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 19 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Damn, they really raped us in the ass out there huh?

[–] bampop@lemmy.world 5 points 17 hours ago

Our assholes got obliterated

You ain't wrong kid

[–] CuriousRefugee@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I thought it was "Sodom and Gamera" for way too long. Imagine some giant, fire-breathing turtle out there getting attacked by God for being too sinful or whatever

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 5 points 20 hours ago

I mean, there's no proof the fire that destroyed the cities wasn't raining down from a kaiju. The only witness was Lot's wife and she wasn't saying much afterwards

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 1 points 18 hours ago

Turtles aren't supposed to have jets! That ain't natural!

[–] thagoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 day ago

Probably not far from what actually happened to the O's

[–] thenextguy@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

β€œWe got Gomorrahed out there!”

So many people traveling the Oregon Trial got dysenteried.

Still works

[–] Windex007@lemmy.world 7 points 23 hours ago (1 children)
[–] vocornflakes@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

O's have been swept in their last 3 playoff appearances iirc.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 3 points 21 hours ago

I mean... If it works

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 2 points 20 hours ago

(When they learned the meaning they didn't stop saying it like that tho.)

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

ngl if one of my kids said this in the same context I'd just respond with the Grizzly Adams nod.

[–] Lirton@lemmy.today 4 points 1 day ago

I am very curious what exactly their dad was yelling at that moment.

[–] IWW4@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 day ago
[–] unknownuserunknownlocation@kbin.earth 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Huh? It seems like "we got obliterated out there" would mean the same thing in that situation, not sure why that would tip the poster off as to what sodomize actually means.

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 20 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think it was the dad yelling, presumably telling the kid they shouldn't say his favourite team got fucked in the ass, that tipped the kid off to the meaning.

OK, I completely misread the post. I somehow read that the father yelled that...
