Dirty-minded describes someone whose thoughts habitually drift toward sexual interpretations of otherwise innocent things. A dirty-minded person hears double entendres everywhere, turns every ambiguous phrase into a punchline, and finds the suggestive reading in whatever is presented to them. The label is usually affectionate rather than condemnatory — an acknowledgment of a fun character quirk rather than a moral failing. Being dirty-minded is practically a requirement for enjoying certain styles of comedy.
She was so dirty-minded that even the plumber's visit to the sitcom became a running joke at her expense.
