You what?

Today, I'm studying abroad in Mexico and someone asked me what it's like to be from Minnesota. I responded in Spanish, in front of thirty people, what I thought translated to, "If you get cold, you can just put on a jacket." Apparently, what I thought meant "jacket" actually meant "masturbate". FML

Actually, you are all missing the FML here. She used the word 'chaqueta' wich correctly means jacket in Spanish but in Mexican slang, 'chaqueta' means to **********. So in all fairness your spanish was correct but while in Mexico you may want to stay with 'Chamarra' instead of 'Chaqueta' when referring to your jacket.

As a minnesotan myself, you embarrass me. lol

I'm from Minnesota too! :D But yeah, did you use "chaqueta" or "chamarra?" Because "chaqueta" is slang for wanking..

this is why I love English. you will never get ********** mixed up with any other word. sex and six you may have a point, but context clues usually clear things up there.
