Los Ramo-nays and The Clash

Punks in Havana.  Gawker reports.

Face-making

The Atlantic has a nice list up of 19th century British slang for "sex."  Here are the best ones:

• Amorous congress: 
To say two people were engaged in the amorous congress was by far the most polite option on the list, oftentimes serving as the definition for other, less discreet synonyms.

• Basket-making: 
"Those two recently opened a basket-making shop." From a method of making children's stockings, in which knitting the heel is called basket-making .

• Bread and butter: 
One on top of the other. "Rumor has it he found her bread and butter fashion with the neighbor."

• Face-making: 

Aside from the obvious, this also comes from "making children," because babies have faces.

• Blanket hornpipe: 

• Green gown: 
Giving a girl a green gown can only happen in the grass.

• Lobster kettle: 
A woman who sleeps with soldiers coming in at port is said to "make a lobster kettle" of herself.
