Well, I remember a cracking Subway one, not just the Sub of the Day, but a special offer to "upgrade your six-inch sub to a footlong".

:-D

I chuckle to myself, or shudder depending on who it is, when somebody in a car says : "I haven't got my strap on" when referring to their seat belt.

Edited to add : S&M Cafe do make the best sausage and mash! I love that place

I used to teach 'materials science'. One of the abbreviations used for steel is BDMS. I used to get it wrong quite often.

I've had to ask a colleague for some info. Her team will apparently get back to me. Or, as her email put it:

(I think it's Distribution Operations Managers - but I daren't ask.)

Well, at my work we have a District Operations Manager (again a DOM). I guess those initials will come up quite often.

Spotted in Yorkshire: a firm's van with "Roman Showers" written on it.

My doctor is a great fan of CBT, only not the type I'm fond of.

They are now being withdrawn from circulation but I used to laugh when using my Switch card.

if feel better now as they are called Maestro now but get great delight using a MasterCard ;-)

Dom's need a MasterCard and subbies need visas.

Now that's made me think in France with Carte Bleu they perhaps need a Carte Bleu et noir.

Today's the tomorrow you worried about yesterday.

Whenever I post a journal entry on LJ, next to my username is a little button saying 'switch'.

Uswitch tends to raise a smile with me, too.

I've occasionally done a double-take when seeing a car marked 'BSM School of Motoring' (prompting a train of thought about what a BDSM school of motoring might include, and whether there'd be a market for it...). :)

A commentator on the Golf Channel just yesterday, "Well, the media keep complaining that golfers are too vanilla...".

I'd never heard the term used for people other than in a non-BDSM context before, made me wonder about the commentator!
