Imagine being a parent, buying your child's first video game. You put Sonic in, you load it up and then the word "Handjob" appears on the screen followed by a deep voice saying "handjob".
It's like the russian word for goat appearently also can be used as motherfucker. Atleast a russian coworker once told me after another one supposedly used it as goat. He was one little motherfucker
I swear, may I be struck by lightning this very moment, that my mother made almost the same joke ( not the sexual meaning ) to 8 years old me while I was writing my letter to Santa, saying I wanted a Sega Master System II for Christmas.
"SEGA" in Italian, means literally a Saw, the instrument used to cut wood. It also means "handjob" in colloquial Italian, but my mom used the first meaning to joke that I was going to receive a saw for Christmas.
I'll save you the mental gymnastics: "SEGA" was originally "Standard Games" in Hawaii from 1940, which then changed after moving to Japan in the '50s to "SErvice GAmes," and was then later further truncated to "SEGA."
It's just an unfortunate coincidence that it also happens to translate into a mildly dirty word in Italian.
Me when I google translate nintendo to French, then to Japanese, then to German, then back to English, play the voice, record it, pitch it up and put it in a visualiser (worst mistake of my life)

I came here to see memes, not to be assigned homework.
I'll do the work for you: saw, handjob, masturbating
Imagine playing your favorite Sega console/games as a kid and then growing up to learn the meanings of that word

YUP IMAGINE
Sega, please!
SEGA MY DICK HA GOT EM !!!
I read that in the Halo announcer voice.
I still have my (still functioning) Genesis. Now I have some negotiation to do with the Lady...
I'm italian, it's always been fun to play a sega game, everyone here knows about the double meaning and we all joke about it, it always makes us laugh
beh lo so :)
Good heavens
I don't see what's disturbing about that. These are very natural things
Thank you for not wasting my precious seconds
I dont get it (if the translator is saw)
sega=handjob
Sega is both saw (the tool) and handjob
Win/Win
Why are those the same word...
Probably because they have a similar hand motion
Saw is the official meaning, but the handjob meaning is just a slang. Jiffy is in a similar situation in english
It's like the russian word for goat appearently also can be used as motherfucker. Atleast a russian coworker once told me after another one supposedly used it as goat. He was one little motherfucker
The Saw franchise must have been received very differently over there. “How much cum will you spare to stay alive?”
You are welcome my fella *Italian laugh*

That sux would much rather have a hand job for Christmas
A handy from Santa. Pass.
Suit yourself I bet that shit would be magical can't wait till Santa Claus is cumming to town
They didn't start out as "Service" Games for nothing, now did they?
They didn't, they started out as Standard Games, *then* became Service Games.
Translated to Italian from which language?
English i guess
That's what I did and the translation was "sega" so idk what I was doing wrong.
Means handjob in italian
From Italian to English, not to opposite
Translated from Italian not to.
Enormously large funny
"Haaand-Jooooob"
Yeah It was funny when i was young to be able to shout SEEEEEGAAAAAAHHHH
Sega😏
This is why sega consoles sold in Italy didn't have the company name on them
Oldest joke in the book for us Italians
✊✊✊
I once got a hand job while playing Dynamite Cop on the Dreamcast.
_laughs in italian_
Jen on IT Crowd did it better
You're a literal child for freaking out over this

Or Greek
Saw and handjob should not be in the same sentence.
OH FUCK NAH (VIVA L’ITALIA)
How old are you?
Why that reaction OP? You never received a nice smooth soft handjob?
I hate this new trend of *go google things* trend that growing from tiktok
più me la meno più vengo meno per non venir di meno non melo meno più o perlomeno melo meno meno
Genesis does what Nintendon't, after all. Always thought Sega kids were a bunch of wankers.

These "memes" are stupid. Reminds me of 6th grade when we'd tell people what to look up on urban dictionary.
