Did anybody else laugh out loud when...

...when they realised what two items/services the shop in Spinner Cay sells.

Mast
and, er,
Bait

Coincidence? I think not.

Naughty Telltale. :D

    It may just be me, but no: I didn't see it until I read your post for twentieth time. Just like it took me about 10 minutes to find the "phallic symbol".

    Either I'm too innocent or you have too dirty minds.

    I would say this one is a coincidence.

    Facepalm moment.
    It took me a minute to understand. But yes, I did miss that the first time around.
    Actually, I do think it's a coincidence.

    Actually, Anemone doesn't sell masts, Anemone pays for repairs, meaning, any repairs.

    In fact, the store says "Bait", with a cardboard "AND REPAIRS" below it.

    I don't think it's coincidence that a Mr Wood started this topic.

    Yeah... I don't get it.

    Could somebody explain what the joke is to me? In detail? With diagrams?

    Um, like 'Bait and Tackle', but in this case there's a mast and bait.

    But it's not really because it's a bait and repairs shop. :rolleyes:

    Hehe, rubber mast, get it? They have rubber mast now...
    And umm... Glassblower! LOL!
    And you put the the claw thingy inside the shells!
    Also the action figures are obvious Village people reference!

    Everything can be some kind of innuendo with the right mentality. When I go home I put my key in the keyhole and then I turn it so it unlocks. See?

    Although I have quite good English vocabulary, I don't get it either, but I'm sure it's something vulgar which is related to genitalia.

    Does "master bait" sound like anything? Seeing as it basically is the same as "mast and bait".

    I'm not saying it's one of the basic words you need to know from English, but you must have avoided a whole lot of sites if you didn't even get this one.

    I for one don't spend my days thinking if some words slighty resemble some other words which have naughty meanings, unless the innuendo is quite obvious. We had that sort of humour in the lower grades of school, but when we grew up our sense of humour developed and just hearing a naughty word wasn't enough to make us laugh like idiots.
