      Funny English Slang Words

      I've always been fascinated with slang, particularly ones in my own native language, but recently, I've been noticing and finding humor in American slang a lot more. The one term I find most humorous is the word "cankles", and for those who are unfamiliar, it's a combination of calf and ankles, pertaining to when a person has wide enough ankles that it's hard to differentiate from the calf. I don't know what it is about this term, it seems too easy to invent, but I find it so creative and humorous. Do you guys have any American/English slang that you find funny and think would be worth noting?
