the website dickblick on a tab on our downstairs computer earlier this evening! My husband had been on it while I was preparing dinner & left the browser open to Google, with one other tab not closed. When I saw the words on the tab my brain deleted the 'b' and I read the webpage as "dick lick." (Why is my mind in the gutter?!) I hesitated to click on it for a second, fearing what I would see. I literally laughed out loud when I clicked on the tab & saw DickBlick is an art supplies site! I have no reason to think my husband would be brazen enough to look at porn out in the open, especially because he's morally opposed to it. So, why my mind went there, I don't know! He paints as a hobby, but I have never heard of this online store before. The 'Art' world isn't really 'my' world. Anyway, have you ever had a funny misunderstanding in your marriage??

In California there is a store called Dick's Sporting Goods. A friend's son googled "dicks"...imagine his surprise.
Dick Blick is fab, they send coupons periodically.

We have a Dick's Sporting Goods here and it's pretty close to Hooter's. There were a lot of 13 year old boy comments with friends when Dick's was being built.

I was taking laundry out of the wash to transfer to the dryer one day and there was a pale blue bra in the machine. I did not own a pale blue bra. My dd did not wear bras at that point in time. Smoke was coming out of my ears at the thought of my dh not only having an affair, but having one in our home. As I continued to pull things out of the wash I found in my hands a brand new pair of blue jeans. I looked at the bra again, recognized the design and realized that my formerly nude colored bra had acted as a dye magnet and I was grateful that nothing else in the load had picked up any of the color.

There was a Dick Blick store in town when we were kids that we LOVED going to, so I would have known what it meant. That's funny though! I can see how you missed the B.

I was on a California coastal cruise a couple of years ago. We planned our port stops in San Fran (had been there before and saw all the sights and San Diego (after our photo tour) to include stops at both stores! AMAZING!

Yeah, I did the same thing at work with a couple people hanging over my shoulder so I could show them a photo of a kayak. It wasn't a kayak that we all got to see that day, that incidentally no one will let me forget! edited to comment that I am now "throbbing" How appropriate!

Reminds me of the time when my sister was helping her daughter with a project on British Birds. They googled Great Tits and wished they hadn't.

yeah, I'm familiar with the store so I knew what you were seeing. still funny though.
My dad's name was Richard, he went by Dick. DH and I had a big debate when I was PG with our son, as my dad had passed by then, but I just couldn't bring myself to saddle him with the first name of Dick, so it's a middle name.

The bloke who used to live next door to us was called Richard. He was a complete twat and known to all and sundry as 'Dick by Name and Dick by Nature'.

Every time I scroll through the satellite guide and see Hard Corn Pawn I always think hard core porn. The first time freaked me out now I still read it like that.
