A real world one: So, where I live, we speak Dutch (well, Flemish, but who cares). A beer (pint) and a kid (kind) are really close to each other in our language.

The best man in his speech - roughly translated: "take (rape) another kid" (neem nog een kind). He ment to say "take another beer" (neem nog een pint), but the nerves got the best of him.

Was a funny moment :)
