The most funny ever... (I made new friends with these)
My friends and I were leaving the beach when a car passed by and said:
Topo, topo porque não? (I'm in, why not?)

HAHAHAHHAHA
Then when we where in the road, we found the car, started to chat and we pulled over the guy's place and made new friends, going out in the evening to a bar in the city.

Lol, that was my reaction too. Subtle humor is the hardest thing to cross the language barrier.

I feel like some things just don't translate well either, or you have to change the whole meaning. I have trouble with this when speaking Portuguese. I feel like I probably said some pretty funny stuff accidentally or things that just didn't make sense at all while in Brazil. I sent a friend a message today that doesn't speak much English. He sent me a message back with something to the extent of, "What the hell kind of Portuguese is this dude?" My Portuguese is going to shit cause I'm not practicing....

Here's my line....

"Fuma maconha?" - You smoke weed?

But to tell you the truth, in many places in Brazil, you're better off not letting girls know you smoke herb. A lot of places aren't close to as liberal as they are here in the states. It didn't seem very popular among girls, unless they were more the hippie type, which there are many of those who are gorgeous and awesome there as well. I felt it was cool in Rio and Sao Paulo, but in Vitoria it was better if I didn't let people know I smoked who didn't smoke as well. My local friends were the same way.

Brandon is right. It doesn't look, but remember that BR is a Catholic conservative country and this appears in those situations, drugs, abortion, sex...
Also, people may not like to know due to drug dealing in BR, some has lost relatives in this situation.
