Do you know f*cking?

Today was rainy so my co-teacher came to pick me up for school. She has a pretty thick accent so I often have to be on the ball when listening to her. I'm not a morning person at the best of times and I didn't sleep last night so 'on the ball' I wasn't. As we arrived at school, we had a short conversation that went like this (italics are what I didn't dare say):

CT:     We will f*ck over there.
Me:     (Um, you're very attractive an' all but I like boys) Excuse me?
CT:     F*ck. F*cking. Do you you know f*cking?
Me:     (Well sure, who doesn't.) Uh, can you spell that?
CT:     p-a-r-k

Wow, that could've been awkward. Jennifer has had a similar mix-up so I should've known better!

The other flub came at lunch time when my co-worker said to me "We're having crap today. I hope you like crap." Now, I know school lunches can be bad but, really, there's no call for that! And the lunch lady was standing right next to us. Upon looking in the pot, I realised we were having crab.
