naked?

so the first sentence of my "what makes stanford a good place for you" essay includes the word naked (as in a naked person). it makes perfect sense with the essay and is reaaaalllly funny. is it just a taboo word to avoid or will they enjoy a good jolt after reading hundreds of other essays??

Are you 100 percent sure that this will be funny to anyone who reads it?
