This is a great example of "did I say that out loud???" This happened at Harvard University in October last year. In a biology class, the professor was discussing the high glucose levels found in semen which gives the sperm all the energy for their journey. A female freshman raised her hand and asked, "If I understand you correctly, you're saying there is a lot of glucose, as in sugar, in semen?" "That's correct," responded the professor, going on to add statistical info. Raising her hand again, she asked, "Then why doesn't it taste sweet?" After a stunned silence, the whole class burst out laughing. The poor girl's face turned bright red, and as she realized exactly what she had inadvertently said (or rather implied), she picked up her books without a word

The follow up to that is the professor responds "That is because the taste buds that recognize sweet flavors are at the tip of your tongue and not down your throat"

Haha! That's so funny! Reminds me of a friend of mine who wrote a school paper which compared roosters from two different books. The title of her paper was "The Cock Comparison". She didn't realize what she'd written until AFTER she turned it in. lol

I turned in a research paper last semester on ADHD and my spell check did an auto-correct so that my title read:
"Attention Defecate Disorder with Hyperactivity and the Impact on Working Memory"
