A Shakespearean Freudian Slip
(We are in ninth grade English, reading Romeo and Juliet. Each character is assigned to a student. This teacher also runs the theater program, so he has a prop closet in his classroom.)
Boy #1: “Draw thy tool! Here comes of the house of Montagues.”
Boy #2: “My naked weapon is out. Quarrel! I will back thee.”
(There are assorted snorts and giggles, and the teacher explains that this simply means he has drawn his sword. We manage to calm down and move on, until some time later…)
Teacher: “Time for a demonstration! Let me go get out my sword!” *disappears into the prop closet*
(We laughed uncontrollably for a good couple of minutes.)
