I often use "M as in mayhem." I know it's "Mike" but that's boring.

Germans use ČS for "Tschechoslowakei". Yes, really − not only is Č not in the word, it's also not in the German alphabet.

To make them really uncomfortable, use your sluttiest code words.

D as in Daddy, M as in Mummy, H as in Harder, P as in Pineapple, that's my safe word, I've never had to use it...
