"Puff, The Magic Dragon" What could possibly be wrong with taking a children's fantasy song and changing the title to include references to homosexuals and masturbation.
Nothing, I suppose. Just as long as you do not plan on making it available outside of your own household.
If you really are new to Mudcat then let me introduce you to a couple of basic facts.
There are people on board from various parts of the world, not just America. Many of us have lived in various parts of the world and are not inclined to be fooled by statements such as "Some words used here to define one thing in the USA define quite another.". We know exactly what the words mean.
The Australian's who usually sign on here around this time of night are a polite, intelligent bunch who have done much in the way of erasing the old Australian stereotypes and you have did them no great service here.
I have lived in many countries for many years (Including yours) and I can honestly say that your humour wouldn't interest me at all,(no matter what your nationality) although it may be popular among 14 year old boys. Just a bit creepy for a person your age though.
Have you thought about maybe collecting old license plates or car parts as a hobby? Maybe, hub caps"? Something that doesn't involve communicating with others.
Hey! You asked.
