expressions - word to describe a person who catches the sexual overtone in a normal conversation


I know there is a word for it — I heard it when I was young. What is the word to describe a person who catches the sexual overtones in a normal (non-sexual) conversation?


Here's one example I have (I said this and then laughed because it was my comment and went over my own head at the time):


I was considering a name for a mobile dog grooming business. I thought 'Doggie Style' was great. Of course, the room full of my husband's friends laughed at me, telling me I'd never get approved for a license with that name. What word would I use to describe them?
