Members UMT Posted October 26, 2009 Members Share Posted October 26, 2009 I want to use a line in our logo that says: "Want to shake your junk?" Logo Basically the last line says: we play classic rock and funk What does 'shake your junk' in this case mean to you? We are having a argument over 'slang.'

Members Jimbroni Posted October 26, 2009 Members Share Posted October 26, 2009 I'm my case its what I do when I get out of the shower at night, and my girlfriend looks at me and sez, "yer an idiot" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nobody Told Me Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 My first thought is a man doing some type of pelvic thrust maneuver. Something I would not want to encourage any men around me to attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GCDEF Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 I'd interpret that to mean shake your booty, but male genitalia is sometimes referred to as junk, so I can see the confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BlueStrat Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 Junk is slang for a penis. Do you really want men shaking their penis at you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BlueHeaven Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 It would sound like your band was an openly gay band playing in a steamy gay bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chicken Monkey Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 I thought of junk in your trunk first, but could see it being taken to mean dong. There's an awful lot of euphemisms for the ass; I'd choose another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members GCDEF Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 Why not just change it to "want to shake the junk in your trunk"? At least it's clear that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ku'Yleh Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 I always thought of it as a slang term for the penis and testicles as a whole, but either way it means male genitalia to me. :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bl77a Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 Out of context, junk implies male dangly bits to me. "Junk in the trunk" is the rear. If the word is causing debate, I'd nix it. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DevilRaysFan Posted October 27, 2009 Members Share Posted October 27, 2009 It would really be funny if the poster shows some girl on the dancefloor with a bunch of trash taped to her ass ......................... I think that would eliminate the penis/junk confusion............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
