    Yeah, but let’s say they start to build a dossier on you and then they randomly stop you for a check on the road?

    Prepare your anus

      Please don’t make rape ‘jokes’. I’m not a bloke but it’d be no more acceptable if I was.

        Would have never thought this could be remotely connected to a rape joke. I mean your anus is a metaphor for your wallet. Sorry

          I’m not sure if English is your first language (if not, you write it very well). Direct translations can cause all sorts of misunderstandings. For a native English speaker, that is a rape joke.

            Hi, no english is not my first language, thank you for the compliment tho.

            Anyway, another word that I could have used would have been “prepare to get fucked” still sexual; is it still “rapey” ?

            So if someone is eating a really spicy chili and I say “Prepare your anus”.

            Is it a rape joke ?

            Not a native speaker either but I feel presenting the original comment as a rape joke is a stretch.

            Context matters.

            Also breaking news, plenty of Police forces and prison guards are able to kindly ask you to “prepare your anus” and in a very much legal manner. This is how I understood the original comment.
