“Son, Please Be More Careful With Your Condoms! Love, Mom x”

We’re sure we all have things that we’d rather our parents didn’t see. That folder within a folder within a folder on the computer titled “schoolwork” that isn’t really anything of the sort; that moustache waxing kit at the back of the drawer; the small collection of letters penned by an old love…

But a parents discovering – and then returning – a condom is perhaps one of the worst experiences a young man or women living at home can have.

Spare a thought, then, for the poor chap who discovered this misplaced condom along with a note from his mother waiting for him when he returned home one evening.

The patient, 57-year-old Masaru Tanaka, was admitted to the hospital in December last year after the driver of a truck knocked him off his motorbike, confining him to a hospital bed after suffering a severe cerebral hemmorhage. Hearing the sad news that Masaharu was unable to attend his own daughter’s wedding, staff at Akirudai Hospital in west Tokyo put their heads together to bring the celebrations to him instead.

At around 4:20pm last Sunday, emergency services in Tokyo’s Ōta ward received a call saying that a young man had leapt from a building and was lying injured in the street.

Son Disgusted to Find Father’s Porno Collection, Buys Him Some Decent Stuff to Replace It

Father-son-relations don’t get much tighter than this.

Over on a Taiwanese internet bulletin board, a young man’s tale of discovering his father’s porn stash has drawn hundreds of comments after he alleged that he was so blown away by the terrible quality of the material that he ran out and bought something better to gift to his old man.

The very thought of making such a discovery is likely to send a shiver down most people’s spine, and few would find themeselves even able to look dad in the eye for a few days having discovered his box of filth, but this dutiful young man maintains that his tale is 100% true… Read More
