Question For The Ladies~

In America it is "hot flash."

So, quite simply, America get it wrong. Again.

ooh. Look at Captain America... all...

(I admit. I got nothing.)

In America it is "hot flash."

In Canada too...

We get a lot of things wrong, but if there is anything we are good at, it's hot flashes..........

I'm not saying anyone is wrong here, but the "hot flushes" vs "hot flashes" thing is making me think of this coworker  I have who always gets common phrases wrong. 

For example, she always says "I'm going to nip that in the butt"

Or instead of "I got up at the crack of dawn", she says "got up at the butt crack"  or "got up at the butt crack of dawn".

It sounds like she's obsessed with butts, doesn't it?  But there are others, those are just the two I could think of right away.  I've always wondered if I should correct her, but I kind of think its funnier to let her keep saying it.

Sterling, your post reminds me of a bouncer that denied a friend's fake ID a few years back... he combined two colloquial phrases and said "What do you think I was born on a turnip truck?"

Well, for anyone who doesn't know, he combined "fell off a turnip truck" with "born yesterday".      Bouncers are funny.

What is a hot flash? And, is it true that guys can get hot flashes?

If I remember correctly, they're usually associated with hormonal changes in women. I've never heard of men getting hot flashes. They may experience something similiar in regards to stress. Not sure.

That's ?funny. ?

I've mixed up sayings before. One that I said incorrectly, "Don't lick a gift horse in the mouth".?

That's funny and gross.  Creates quite a picture.

I saw a commercial once here in the Western U.S. and it talked about guys getting hot flashes too. That's the only reason I was asking.

[noonespecial]

you sure it wasn't erectile dysfunction, because that's usually what happens to as dudes get as they get older...

[Markus Asraelius]

No, it's not that at all. I heard the words men and hot flash.

Yes, erectile dysfunction happens as we get older but I don't have to worry about that yet. It starts around the mid 20's and gets worse.

all of which reminds me of the classic Hendrix line (as told to me by my friend in High School):

" 'Scuse me while I kiss this guy!"

I laughed so hard I almost pissed my pants.

It took me 20 min to explain to him that wasn't, exactly, the lyric.  Every time I tried I started laughing again.  Guy thought I'd lost touch.

i always thought these things happend when you were old... but at 19 i def get them when im on my period! they are not pleasent at all... and the worst is when you get them while your sleeping!

FLUSH

Hmm...all this time I've been saying hot flash, too!

[Mandy.]

I'm trying to get some sort of control over it, but it isn't easy. Yet, it works...... sometimes.

[Markus Asraelius]

i wish i could have a vagina for a day.

I wish I could have a penis for a day. Oh wait...

I already do. I guess I just need to play with it more, see how it works and everything.
