  My college Spanish can’t fail me… of course it just says “pick up that gun” and isn’t some sort of double entendre that I don’t understand

    Your observation is correct.

    Explanation

    In Argentina/Uruguay, “coger” is slang/vulgarism for “to have sexual intercourse [with]”, while “pistola” is also slang for penis. Literally “fuck that cock” or “have sex with that penis”

      Ah, so it’s kinda like “smoke a fag” in English / English (simplified)

        You’ll be glad to hear that “concha” (“shell/conch”)…

        NSFW

        …is also a very vulgar form of calling the female genitals (akin to “cunt”)

      OK but in South America and Mexico, literally everything also means clock or fuck.

  In Portuguese from Portugal, one of the words for “queue” is “bicha”,

  In Portuguese from Brasil, “bicha” is a slang word for homosexual.

  So the common Portuguese expression to tell somebody one’s going to stand on a queue - “vou para a bicha” (literally “I’m going to the queue”) - has a whole different meaning for Brasilians.
