| Quote: | It's game over for the Buick LaCrosse in Canada. A General Motors executive yesterday admitted that the future Buick model -- which is set to debut late next year -- will be re-named in Canada after GM learned LaCrosse is a Quebec slang term for masturbation.
The new mid-size sedan, which will replace the Buick Regal, will still go by the name LaCrosse in the U.S.
GM vice-chairman Bob Lutz, who was in Toronto yesterday to address a gathering of GM dealers, said he wasn't aware of LaCrosse's racy roots although he speaks French and spent three years living in Paris.
"I thought I knew every expression existing in the French language for self-gratification, including the crudest ones known to man," said the outspoken Lutz. |

LaCrosse peer say doesnt mean anything here...for masturbating we say : Se crosser or to say that someone got screwed we say : Il sait fait crosser.
Lacrosse really does'nt mean shit so I don't even see why they change it.

That's funny, I posted the same reply on flamevault. Where exactly do you live Mael? I'm in Longueuil... le vrai, c'est toute une f*****g fierte.
De toute facon, acheter une Buick c'est toujours se faire crosser non? Il devrait laisser le nom de meme, au moins on sait a quoi s'attendre =P

You'd be amazed at how often you can get laid living in the states and speaking french. NYC girls loved it when I was there.

Thanks for the info... cept for the fact that I was born and raised in NYC, and still go back every few months to see friends and family. Get your ass kicked for speaking french? That's funny. Maybe, MAYBE someone will have attitude towards you if you're from France. Living in Quebec and speaking french has the opposite effect, ppl are genuinely interested and girls f*****g love it. I appreciate your input though, just keep your posts on topics you know 1 shit about k? Thanks.

I've never had trouble getting girls. Fitness and a good personality, followed up with a "Hello" works wonders.
But, hey, if you need gimmicks to boost your chances - go for it.

No no, gimmicks boost the quality level of the female, not the chances. Any Joe with decent arms and a quick wit can score tracy the waitress. Adding the slick Hugo Boss suit with the romantic french whispers? That lands you eva the stock broker.

French sucks. I can speak enough of it to get by (spoke a lot of french when I was in montreal) but it's an inherently arrogant language. I'm fluent in Portuguese, which really has very little real world use...but at least I can brag that I don't speak French.
