Back in high school, I was quite shy with people who weren't my friends. The high school’s wrestling coach also taught geometry. This resulted in a lot of wrestlers skipping class and barging into our classroom to hang out and avoid trouble. One day, seven wrestlers burst in yelling about new wrestling uniforms, and how thrilled they were. When they went over to get the uniforms, the whole class started giving them side glances. Even without what I say next, the suits look funny. I mean, it’s skin-tight royal blue Spandex with a suspender-like top. Already pretty funny. But the wrestlers grab the uniforms and hurried out to switch into them in the bathroom, and came back to show them off. Which, is equally hilarious because Spandex hides NOTHING; you could see everything. In any case, we reside in a town called Ocean City. It’s commonly abbreviated as “OC”. On the back of the Spandex uniform, it has Ocean City Men in large letters. Except… they decided on the abbreviation. On the back, it says OC MEN. Which isn’t too bad, but then I say it in my head. OC MEN. Oh—semen. I almost spit out the water I was drinking. I glanced around quickly, trying to figure out who to tell, because I didn’t have any friends to tell in this class. I looked at the girl sitting next to me, and I had no idea who she was and had never talked to her before. I shared my discovery with her and we both started laughing. The whole time she thought of me as the quiet teacher’s pet who was shy as hell. The first words out of my mouth were “It says oh semen.” We’ve been best friends for 7 years now.
