A word explaining the combination of insinuations and insinuendo. A possibly lewd insinuendo. A nod to whatever.
Unfortunetly, Brad being the rude arse that he was, found it necessary to comment about every tryst he had ever had as a bleak, common, college student, making insinuendoes about each encounter, ignoring the fact that his only liason had been with his hand.

to suggest or hint slyly (generally with a flirtatious undertone) indirectly about a person, thing or situation
to insinuate with a splash of innuendo
Jane: I'm thinking about heading out after this beer
John: Oh really, where you heading
Jane: Either my place or yours
John: Oh, how do you know where i live?
Jane: I thought you could show me
(obviously, John isn't picking up on the insinuendo that Jane is putting forward)

The vaguest of insinuations towards a well-known racial stereotype.
"I wouldn't trust the Man in the Yellow Hat with MY monkey."
"What an inflammatory racial insinuendo!"

When insinuation & inuendo become E ntangled as circumstances arise that allows both words to have pertinent reference to the situation at hand
All though he attempted to say there was no hidden agenda in his banter with her the witty Insinuendo suggested otherwise !
