Recently, my pals and I were hanging out on this cement kind of pedestal (as we referred to it). It’s basically the stairs leading to the portable (a classroom that no one uses). This strange substitute French teacher comes up to us and says, “you should not sit on this ground, it’s too cold and it’s bad for your ovaries.” I asked her why that’s the case and she said that if children sit on cold ground their ovaries will freeze and that we won’t be able to have kids. Now it’s an ongoing joke between us about not sitting on cold ground.
