No, it's sun tan lotion that smells of apples and oranges, hence why there are pictures of them on the carton.

I'm sure DuranXL will apologise for being foreign and posting on an English speaking forum.

haha I'm lovin the debate around duct / duck tape.

What about Nutella ? I use that term for everything that is similar.

**art_fan_12** · 11-20-2009, 03:03 AM

There's actually debate as to whether it was originally called "Duct Tape" or "Duck Tape"... You really shouldn't use it for duct's anyway, metal tapes are far superior.

ducktape is a brand of duct tape

That's a very very common story about the origins.

I've heard many Americans call drywall Sheet Rock.

**logpogingg** · 11-20-2009, 07:50 AM

Ski-doo for snowmobiles.

that usually describes a personal watercraft, stateside

**gyjsdtuwr** · 11-20-2009, 07:51 AM

To be fair, he was probably thinking of a Jet-Ski.

Now that I think about it, I'm not sure whether Jet-Ski or Sea-Doo is more popular.

Edit: Why the hell is it called a Jet-Ski, anyway? There are no skis on the damned thing.
