In German,Schmuck is an umbrella term for jewellery and things like that.
The German Schmalz is lard.
I presented "discombobulate" to my pupils today: It made them laugh.
Yelbakk - Do you want french fries with that?

'Vagina' is a hideous word. Any suggestions for a better one... that could be used without offending anyone, that isn't a pun, and that we've not heard before?
'Anal' is our current word of the month for insulting someone (but only as a verb).
'Spoon' is an old favourite, still.

You said Pun..So I'm gonna have to force you to endure my current joke/pun of the month:
I've learnt to speak the language of the vagina
I'm a cunning linguist

Actually, I was responding to a higher post than the James Bond joke, but it showed up at the same time (the *magic* of simulposting)
