I had a colleague who was from South Africa, where the terminology was a bit different. He had engaged with computers at the point when portable discs were transitioning from 5.25" to 3.5".
One time at work he was looking for 3.5" disc, the 5.25" ones having been totally superseded, but there still needed to be a distinction made. He approached one of our female colleagues and asked with some desperation that he needed a "stiffy". Stilted silence, then gales of laughter. Multicultural joys. R.
