FInnish Language Trivia

While taking a rest in the cafe from climbing this evening, Joonas started to tell me about some good drinking songs that they have at HUT (Helsinki University of Technology).

One in particular translates into english as:
"he gets the tail in one ear, and the other uses the horn"
Now this is a metaphor for using the telephone (think old fashioned victorian wallmounted jobs).

Here's the intersting part. The words are slightly ambiguous. They have an exactly equal likelyhood of meaning
"he gets fucked in one ear, and the other uses the dick" I'd never have pegged the Finns as a nation of double-entendre- ... er... -ers, but between this, and the 40 words for the male member (Tove sent me a newsflash with the most recent additions to the list. Apparantly La Bamba is now slang for penis is Finland...)

Anywhee, speaking of climbing, I would like to state that I sent two (better say easy) routes like a gekko. It was good.
