Back in high school, I was quite shy around people who weren’t my friends. The high school’s wrestling coach was my geometry teacher. This caused a lot of wrestlers skipping class and coming into our classroom to hang out and not get in trouble. One day, seven wrestlers entered yelling about new wrestling uniforms, and how enthusiastic they were. When they grabbed the uniforms, the whole class began to eye them suspiciously. Even without what I describe next, the suits seemed funny. I mean, it’s a snug royal blue Spandex with a suspender-like top. Absolutely funny already. But the wrestlers snatched the uniforms and rush out of the room to switch into them in the bathroom, and came back to model them. Which, is also quite funny because Spandex shows everything; you could see everything. Regardless, we reside in a town called Ocean City. It’s commonly abbreviated as “OC”. On the back of the Spandex uniform, it says Ocean City Men in large letters. Except… they chose the abbreviation. On the back, it says OC MEN. Which isn’t awful, but then I pronounce it in my mind. OC MEN. Oh—semen. I almost spit out the water I was drinking. I looked around frantically, trying to figure out who to tell, because I didn’t have any friends to tell in this class. I turned to the girl beside 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 saw me as the quiet teacher’s pet who was extremely shy. The first words out of my mouth were “It says oh semen.” We’ve been best friends for 7 years now.
