Nana's Sweater

To follow up on the post on sexual euphemisms my McSweeney friends alerted me to Ben Kharakh's list of Sexual Euphemisms That Won't Catch On which includes some euphemisms that I believe have the potential , despite Ben's assertions, to catch on! Such as...

- - - -
Going to the shop for milk
Trying on the sweater Nana sent you
Rewinding the tape before returning it
Double-bagging the trash
Compounding your percent interest annually
Lather, rinse, and repeating.

Here are some phrases I consider to be eligible for elevation to euphemistic status:

Posting the mail
Toasting the crumpet
Double-faulting
Swimming between the flags
Flicking the switch
Parallel parking
Up-sizing
Getting cake with your coffee

Suggestions for their potential double-meanings, and additions to the list, are welcome.
Anyway, I must go as I have to 'stack the dishwasher' if you know what I mean, wink wink.

Euphemisms - "You say Potato...I say awesome Root (vegetable)"

In Patrick Marber's play and film Closer there is a clever bit of banter in which journalist Dan explains the euphemisms his newspaper uses in obituaries for public figures:

Dan: At six PM, we stand round the computer and read the next day’s page, make final changes, put in a few euphemisms to amuse ourselves…
Alice: Such as?
Dan: “He was a convivial fellow” - meaning he was an alcoholic. “He valued his privacy” - gay. “He enjoyed his privacy” - raging queen."

Hilarious. Then there are the euphemisms for body parts and functions and sexually activities that amuse the giggling adolescent in us all.

Got any good euphemisms to share? Use the comments box.
