In Polish, "Jeb!" is an imperative for "to f***k"?

Doesn't "dole" mean penis in Farsi?  This came up in 1996, when Iranian news outlets were trying to report on the US presidential election.

Didn't know that, since my Farsi isn't that good yet.

Btw, another Penis-related example:

Chilito, once a burrito at Taco Bell....until somebody in charge was informed that it meant "little penis" in Mexican slang.  You can still get a Chilito, but they call it a Chili Cheese Burrito now....but it's not on the menu, it's a "secret" menu item.  I've never had a Taco Bell tell me no.  They are pretty damn good...if a little (relative to other items on the menu) expensive.

@angus, Tony, and Kal:  Why would you want that? What did anyone other than Larry Craig or Aaron Schock do to deserve that?

what?

It seems obvious.  Jeb Bush.  At leas his name isn't Jeb Butts or something like that.  If you're going to Jeb someting, then why not Jeb Bush?

Jesus H. Christ.  I realize that this is mostly a gay forum, but am I the only straight guy here??

Since it's Slavic, is it pronounced "Yeb" or "Zheb"?

I know how to swear in Spanish ("joder" is the f-word), which Jeb understands, of course.
