Back in high school, I was rather reserved around people who weren’t my friends. The high school’s wrestling coach was my geometry teacher. This led to a lot of wrestlers missing class and coming into our classroom to hang out and avoid trouble. One day, seven wrestlers come in yelling about new wrestling uniforms, and how excited they were. When they grabbed the uniforms, the whole class began to eye them suspiciously. Even without what I describe next, the suits look funny. I mean, it’s skin-tight royal blue Spandex with a top that looks like suspenders. Already quite amusing. But the wrestlers took the uniforms and rush out of the room to go change in the bathroom, and came back to display them. Which, is also quite funny because Spandex reveals everything; you could see everything. Regardless, we are from a town called Ocean City. It’s often abbreviated as “OC”. On the back of the Spandex uniform, it has Ocean City Men in large letters. Except… they used the abbreviation. On the back, it reads OC MEN. Which isn’t too bad, but then I pronounce it in my mind. OC MEN. Oh—semen. I nearly choked on my water. I looked around frantically, trying to see who I could tell, because I didn’t have any friends to tell in this class. I turn to the girl next to me, and I had no idea who she was and had never talked to her before. I told her what I found and we both burst out 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 seven years now.
