What's the wildest info that a student dropped when asked a fun fact about themselves?

I teach middle school and this one still takes the cake.

He said that his mom and dad have the same parents.

I asked him to clarify because I didn't understand what he was saying and he said,

I only have one set of grandparents, they had the same parents.

I quickly moved to the next student so no one else

would realize that this kid just told the class that his parents were siblings. I talked to him

about it the next day in private, and he said that he got it mixed up. His parents don't have the

exact same parents, they shared a dad. I felt so much better when the mum called me to let me know

her elderly stepfather married her husband's

elderly mother after they were born. Still weird, but much better. I had a student tell me that

sometimes his dad got drunk and asked his mum for things. As I was starting to tell him to stop

and that he didn't need to elaborate any further, he continued with, like soup, and then he yells it, like,

SOP! It took every bit of restraint not to laugh. It's been years and years since that happened,

but I still laugh whenever I think about it. Not a teacher, but this happened when I was

17 at school camp during a bonding exercise. The teacher said,

Tell us two truths and one lie about yourself,

and we have to guess the lie. And this one weird kid went, I like PlayStation, I like Doritos,

and I'm an alcoholic. The teacher said, oh, well, the lies clearly that you're an alcoholic.

Got you, I play Xbox. My gosh, the look on that teacher's face. In my public speaking class at a community college, we had to get up and do a speech about

an experience that really changed our lives, or an important memory and how it made us who we are.

On the first day, a guy who was a veteran volunteered to go first.
