Interesting conversation on the bus tonight...

Driving Fort Wilderness tonight. Had a group of five girls/young ladies (18-22 age range) get on the bus going to the camp fire, and they liked the experience of riding my bus so much they rode again later because they were looking for me.
On the return trip, two of them decided to play Chubby Bunny. That's a game where you take turns putting a marshmallow in your mouth and attempting to say, "chubby bunny." You continue adding marshmallows, no chewing or swallowing allowed. By the end of the game, it can turn into an amazing show of sheer determination. And, of course, when you have two 18-22 year-old girls playing it, it becomes a rather cute game. However, it prompted a conversation that I didn't care to hear.
Girl 1 and 2 are playing Chubby Bunny
Girl 3 (to girl 4): Hey, I think you would be really, really good at this, with the way you like to put *things* in your mouth.
Girl 4: What do you mean?
Girl 3: Oh, c'mon, do I need to spell it out for you?
(Bus nearly runs off the road)
Me (in my best announcer voice): Ladies and... well, ladies. Please keep in mind that there is one person on this bus of the male persuasion... Namely, me. Thank you for holding certain conversations for the privacy of your cabin. The Walt Disney World Resort and your *male* bus driver thank you for your understanding.
About halfway through saying that, I realized what might happen if they were talking like that specifically to get a rise out of me. Thankfully, they laughed and stopped.
