My surname: reloaded

So, there is a common bastardized version of my surname, with two letters transposed, that is pronounced the same way. ("Bastardized" is not out of line as it is a German name and German othography and geography make clear which spelling is correct.)

Anyway, I have a point here. Tonight I learned that the bastardized spelling is also the slang term for a particular sex act. Or perhaps the better term is "sexual practice." Act, practice or whatever, it's not something that would ever have occurred to me. For I am a simple soul.

All you people who don't know my last name are just going to have to sit this one out. The rest of you can have a little fun with Google. The price will be some of your innocence.

Haven't googled yours yet but mine can also mean taking the cooking of a humble single pot dish to an elevated level...

Not going to google your surname...but am going to complain that the "word verification" that blogger has chosen for me in order to post this lame comment is..."p-i-i-m-p"

Man, your last name isn't Hotcarl, is it? That'd be rough....

How did you figure that out, did you Google yourself? I heard you can go blind doing that....

I attended a "trivia night" at a local alehouse and one of the groups chose as their team name the "[Something] [Something] [Almost My Last Name]-ers."
