Reminds me of the time I was prepping my class in the morning (grade 2) and a mother came in. Her son had recently been diagnosed with ADHD and she was trying the elimination diet so it was not uncommon for her to come in and talk about how things were going with it.

She comes up to me and this is the conversation
Her "Some of the other mums and I have been talking"
Me stopping and looking at her wondering what about my teaching they did not like or what they wanted to have happen.
Me "okay"
Her "We were wondering if you batted for the other team."
Me confused "I don't even play sport."
Her confused looking at me "No not like that."
Me penny dropping they wondered if I was a lesbian, "I have no intentions of discussing my private life."
Her "Oh okay they were just curious."

I hate euphemisms.

5 or 10 pin?....if he lived here anyway.

As a Yank, I had to do a double-take on this one and remind myself of the origin of the term “bowler!”
