Thread: Easy to read poem?

According to my old dictionary -- "Sovetskaya Entsiklopedia, Moscow, 1970":

- pussy ['pusi]:

1) киска;
2) мягкий пушистый предмет.

and that's all!

This word causes a some very peculiar associations for americans, probably. Why them don't try to think about sex -- for, at least, 10 minutes a day?

And don't forget that even in our times not every offensive meaning is included in various dictionories! Speaking of Soviet times, it had been inadmissible!

how about some children`s sadistic poems? Like:

Голые бабы по небу летят:
В баню попал реактивный снаряд.

Or may be digital poems (read numbers in Russian):

17 30 48,
140 10 01...
126 138
140 3 501!!

I really liked the numeric one.

somebody say pommie?
i think pussy as a cat will always generate a chuckle. remember in the 60s, you could say you were gay and you were just a happy guy!
when i was in moscow some studant had a mug with something like 'naughty pussy' and a picture of a grinning cat on it. when she asked why i was laughing i proceeded to tell her all the stuff theats been written on this thread.
use this word with caution!

I would use the word "kitty".

Patting a pussy sounds strange.

Since we started to post funny pictures about stuff... I came across one, not about weiner/pussy though but about boobs :)

I was listening to some music and I heard a song by Katia Lel called "Муси Пуси". I plugged the words into my online dictionary and could not find out what it meant. Does anybody know what this means?

Specifically nonsense words never understood outside the culture it evolved in.

...And you forgot a hyphen between them.

Just affectionate baby talk, not much to it. Like cootchie-coo or googoo gaga.
