NSFW! I Need an Education


If you're at work, stop right now. This is NSFW. Come back tonight when you're at home and no one is spying on you.

Earlier this week, my friend Suzanne from Toulouse and Tonic made some wine bottle memes. She asked me and some friends if we thought they were funny. Several of them were funny, but there was one in particular that I didn't get. I just figured it must be some kind of inside secret between Suzanne and her readers. But then. ALL of the other women she'd asked for opinions from started commenting: "OMG, the FUPA one is hilarious." "Love the FUPA one."

FUPA, FUPA, FUPA.


Of course that was the one I didn't get. I quickly realized that I was the only one who had no idea what FUPA meant. Because these women are close friends of mine and I considered it a safe space, I went ahead and asked: "Hey guys, I don't get it. What's a FUPA?"

My friends are kind and gentle souls who would never try to make me feel stupid ever and so they sweetly educated me.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DON'T KNOW, JEN!!!!! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!"

"LOL. You really don't know?"

"How can you write about vaginas and c-strings and not know?"

"Didn't you ever go to camp? Everyone learns this shit at camp, Jen."

"Jen, I would never guess you were so sheltered."

And then someone took pity on me and tried to explain it to me in terms she thought I'd understand. "Jen, it's the same as a 'gunt.'"

Ummm ... yeah that didn't help me. At. All.

I immediately broke out into a cold sweat. I'm still with-it aren't I? I still know what kids are rapping about, don't I? I'm not old, right???

How was this possible? How could I have gone 43 years and not had these words in my arsenal? It made me shudder to think of how many words I don't know.

So, I'm going to need all of you to educate me. Teach me something I don't know.

Here are the rules though: DON'T POST PICTURES of ANYTHING. 

I don't want to see Blue Waffles or nut sacks or whatever. You post that shit and you'll be banned, because it's gross and no one wants to see that shit. And obviously I know what Blue Waffles are, so let's never speak of it again and if you haven't already Googled that one, DON'T DO IT. There isn't enough bleach in the world for your eyes.

Rusty trombone = favorite (and most descriptive) name for a sexual act.

I don't know what a FUPA is, either. Nor Blue Waffles. And I am leery of looking shit up that might break my iPad or my eyeballs. So I'm going to be checking back here religiously in order to be in the know.

I used "Netlix and chill" talking about a pie crust recipe in my last blog post, knowing full well I'm an old lady who's using that wrong (and giving zero f*cks about it).

Oh gawd, I feel like I HAVE a FUPA after looking at the pictures. Yet another side effect of having kids. 😫

Unknown said...

Okay, at least I know now that Blue Waffles is fake. But I definitely have had a FUPA for several years. That's why stretch Mom jeans are my friend.
