In Nelly's song "Hot in Herre" he says "I'm looking for the right time to shoot my seed", ie masturbation. Well, when the song came out I was 10 and didn't know what that was, and I heard "I'm looking for the right time to shoot my steed". As I loved horses, I thought it was terrible that Nelly would want to shoot one.
