Okay. I was reading something from someone once about "MOHELA", which I now know stands for Missouri Higher Education Loan Authority, which is "the name of a Missouri-based company that manages the billing and payments on many federal student loans". However, a mohel is also one in Jewish tradition who carries out the bris on males (typically 8 days old), and a mohel-a or mohel-et can refer to the same job for someone who is female.

At the time, I couldn't figure out who she'd had circumcised and/or why she'd had to take out a loan to do it! :p

Thank you very much for posting this -- it's one of the funniest things I've read in a while. :ROFL:

I often find myself in all sorts of situations in life where I'm confused, and it's usually because of a lack, or mix-up of contexts.

Glad to know I'm not the only one, lol! :)

"I think you are a very homely girl".
I was rather gutted when I received this note from a fellow from Ireland. He couldn't understand my reaction. He meant that I had a nice homey, girl next door look. The most fun was when he repeated the phrase to my mother when they met. I've never seen eyebrows raise quite that high, lol.

Hmm... reminds me of a Nicole C. Mullen song. In the song, when she was a kid some of the rich kids were calling her "homemade" as in her clothes were not bought from the store.

Homely, or homemade, is out of sight. Can't beat something that somebody who knows you made just for you. Beats factory-made stuff all hollow. Same for people who make themselves into the image of whatever is most popular. "Homely" as that guy meant it is far and away better.

Thanks. And in case you every take a loan from the Missouri Higher Education Loan Authority, I'm sure you can word it in such a way as to really raise someone's eyebrows. Perhaps even get a :o expression! :-)
 
Well I had an interesting experience with OBE once: I learned it as an acronym meaning Overcome By Events at my first job because sometimes things you thought you needed to know or find out are irrelevant by the time you've figured them out (or before and you shouldn't pursue them anymore). Shortly after that one of my favorite authors had the line added in his Biography " he was declared OBE in [whatever the year was, I can't remember it or find it in any of my books]" . Needless to say it didn't stand for Overcome by events in that case.

"I have to go to the head".

(US Navy & Marine Corp slang for "bathroom" or "toilet".)
 
"The chance of this relationship working is equal to the square root of -1."

Of course, if she understands that, there might actually be a chance.
