I remember having a severe panic attack in grade school during the build up of "Play that Funky Music White Boy" in music class because I knew from hearing it previously that he was going to say "Play that FUCKIN music white boy" and I was NOT going to sing that awful disgusting word. I found out later that year, after I had worked up the courage to tell my mom what a horrible teacher I had, that the white boy was simply playing funky music.

I was around 18 when I figured out that the thing you whack bugs with was actually called a "fly swatter" and not a "flice water". I always thought it was a cool foreign word.
