yep that's part of the relief of the job

As a sysadmin for too many years most of this IT double entendre is what makes it just abotu bearable.

Examples:

Working with French guys on software releases which they insisted on calling not versions but virgins. That joke never got old. Ooo lala ziz is ze best virgin now. Or zat virgin is bugged etc etc.

Lots of "I have checked your box and its very dusty"...

Lots of multiplayer gaming with port issues and "have you fingered by port yet?" (yes i know finger is a unix email info tool but we mashed i into a double E anyway.

and lest we forget fat pipes, floppies, and gender benders.
