Micky Flannigan, a uk comedian, does a great routine about when he lived in America and people confused his cockney pronunciation of "house" with the American pronunciation of "Ass".
So at the end of a date he's on the doorstep with a girl and they are saying goodbye:
He says: I'd like to come in your house
She looks shocked. So he says: I won't try to kiss you, I just want to come in your house
