Oh, good god!


I just got an email from my mother! She asked if I thought "ham-fisted" meant something sexual! She said that "fisting" was when someone inserted a large object, like a fist, into one of the many human orifices! And they do it for fun, I guess! (Like a marshmallow eating contest?!)

(And before you get any ideas about my mother, it's just that she knows a lot of prostitutes, ok?)

I never thought it would mean something like that! I was guessing it had something to do with sandwiches, or, like, when a fat person's fist looks like a sleeping piglet!

Just to double-check...

"Ham-fisted" doesn't mean what I think it does, right?
