peter reports a disturbance

If you read "Peterisms" you already know that Peter gets words confused quite often and sometimes makes up his own. Just last night he told me and my friends it was such a weird feeling to get "diga voo." Don't let this give you the wrong idea though. Peter is an absolute genius, musically (have you heard that man play the flute?), comically (although unintentionally), and in many other ways. Still, he says some absolutely HILARIOUS shit.

I used to have these really awful neighbors that would get drunk in the middle of the afternoon and yell horribly profane things at each other and sometimes get physical. For the most part I had no choice but to call the cops. One after noon it got pretty bad and I asked Peter if he would do me a favor and call the police.
"Peter, just tell them they're fighting again and yelling profane things."
"You got it!"
So, Peter calls them and says "Yes ma'am. Our neighbors are going at it again. They're shouting very pornographic things at each other!"
"Profanities, Peter!!! PROFANITIES!"
Going at it? Pornographic? I don't even want to think about what kind of situation the dispatcher thought Peter was trying to report.
Peter had no idea what he had said wrong. He just looked at me very confused and said "What? They're on their way."
