Of course, it helps that he's studying 'Romeo and Juliet' and that close-text reading includes all the dirty jokes!
Oh lord. The
only
reason to teach
Romeo and Juliet
to teenagers: dirty jokes.
Honestly, I don't know why high schools don't teach
Macbeth
instead. It's short and it's gruesome and it's got better poetry.
