Today, one of my classes was watching a portion of the 1968 Romeo and Juliet. Towards the middle of the movie, there is a scene with Romeo and Juliet in bed the morning after their wedding night. Because of school rules, we had to do our best to censor the nudity. Romeo's butt was covered by a piece of paper over the projector, as were Juliet's breasts.
My cooperating teacher thought the nudity was over and started to walk away. Juliet made a sudden move and her breasts flashed the screen for maybe a nanosecond.
Suddenly, I had a room full of adolescent boys screaming and whooping, including a young gentleman who chose to yell "I SAW THEM TITTIES!" over and over again at the top of his lungs.

I remember that scene well. My high school English teacher had some old video tape player that was like a reel to reel machine, with the tape on spools. I'd never seen one before and haven't seen one since. Anyway, she was trying to fast forward past the nudity, and was having a difficult time with this antiquated machine, and twice it paused on Juliet's boobs while the teacher frantically tried to get it playing again.

When I censored it for the next two classes, I knew to cover the Juliet quick-flash at the end, having learned from my cooperating teacher's mistake. I imagine many high school English teachers have a similar horror story.

This is only sort of related, but the boy Chocolatl spoke of reminded me of this story:

In Jr Hi literature our assignment was to read a kid's book to the class, as if we were reading to a group of kids.

I had a cool book, due to having a much younger brother.

This one guy apparently either didn't have much choice or just grabbed one. It was about some old lady counting her blessings even when things got rough. Once when the author was relating the blessings, the line went "...and she had her cock to wake her up in the morn."

I kid you not. The boys in my class almost blew snot out their nose trying not to laugh, and Mrs S was not happy with them. Even I was thinking "Come on Mrs S...that's pretty darn funny."
