Misheard and Misunderstood
Rachelswipe says: My niece - after months of begging - was finally allowed to get a hamster, and her grandfather was utterly horrified to learn that it had been called "Nipples", a pretty good name for a pet if you ask us. Alas, it was only the more mundane "Nibbles" - what have you misheard or misunderstood, with truly hilarious consequences?

We were eating pizza next to a pool in Malta
we were discussing trying new things to eat with my then 10yr old son. I was explaining how its fun to eat new foods when on holiday etc.
Quite out of the blue - he peps up with " Whats donkey Semen"
I nearly choked on my slice of margherita. Before i could answer - i could see how the cogs had worked in his head, and how someone being slagged off in his school had led to quite an uncomfortable scenario at the poolside.
Naturally i shirked it off with the simple "thats one for when your a bit older." and tried to hide my bursting smirk hiding behind the pint glass resting on my bottom lip.

I've read a couple of times, but still don't follow the context of someone being slagged off, and the link to a poolside scenario, and the utterance of "Donky Semen".
Did your son order a "Donkey Semen" smoothie at the poolside bar, in the innocence of youth, not knowing that being accused of ingesting Donkey Semen was, in fact, a rather ribald insult? Did someone correct his mistake?
I don't get it.
