I saw 9 dolphins

This is the phrase one uses when another party in a conversation makes a dirty joke and one doesn't get it.

It originally comes from the 9 dolphins optical illusion. (Seen on 9 Dolphins Rum Bottles)

The picture was used to test a Psychological property in children. Research found that the children could not recognize the intimate scene of the couple because they did not have the prior memory association with such a scenario. Therefore, instead of seeing the couple in an intimate pose, they saw 9 dolphins.
Jessie: "I can't believe you gave me DIET PEPSI you asshole!"

Ryan: "Oh c'mon man its not that big a deal."

Jessie: "Yes it is! I'm Phenylketonuric! I can't have that fake sugar. it gives me muscle spasms and I can't sleep! It was an awful night!"

Ryan: "Oh shit. Dude I'm sorry, I didn't realize."

Jessie: "And I had to cancel my date cuz of you!"

Ryan: "Why? Cuz of Muscle spasms? That sounds like a great way to be on a date, or at least the end of the date. Just set her on top while you buck around like an unbalanced washing machine."

Ryan & Jessie burst out laughing

Malcolm: "..."

Ryan: "Get it Malcolm? Like a washing machine!"

Malcolm: "No dude, I saw 9 dolphins. What's a washing machine have to do with you making Jessie sick?"

Dolphins

1. One of the most beautiful and fun-loving creatures of the sea. Dolphins are not only social and sweet, but possess an incredible intellect. It's always exciting when you spot a school of dolphins playfully leaping across the sea. It's as if they are popping up to say a quick hello to their friends on land. If your truly lucky, one day while sitting on the beach, you might catch a restless dolphin coming close to the beach to put on one flippin' flying fantastic show. It's one unforgettable moment, a true gift from nature.

2. Dolphins are also the beautiful PEOPLE in this world that share the same traits as the dolphins of the sea. They are friendly, fun-loving and playful. The kind of people others are drawn to and love to be around. Intelligent and insightful, it's simply part of their nature to treat people, from all walks of life, despite of social status, with equal kindness and respect. Just like sea Dolphins, they possess a hidden weapon, they can fight like warriors. So beware vicious predators never underestimate or threaten a dolphin, because they can take you out with a bite that makes a Great White attack look like a little nibble.
Did you see that Dolphin just leap 15 feet out of the water and do a full flip? Amazing how nature can sometimes leap out of nowhere and humble us. I love Dolphins.

He's is just like a dolphin, fun, playful, kind and really smart! Don't be a dick and try to take advantage of him or think he can be screw with, because if given reason, he can take you out quicker then a shark.
