I remember when I was a teen talking online with someone from Britain. I don’t remember why, but at one point, he called me a “wanker.”

I thought it was hilarious. He thought he was insulting me, but since I’d never seen nor heard that word used in real life before, it had no emotional meaning to me. Instead, I was tickled by how silly (and patently British) the word sounded.
