When suddenly his Dad pulled an S&M magazine out of his bag and said "Maybe you'd like to have this". Now initially he was troubled in that his father thought he should have an S&M magazine, but then flicked through the pages and realized there was a photo of himself and a girlfriend in full heavy metal goth gear in the social pages, which his father had spotted. Now the layers of wrongness are multiple. His father bought and reads S&M magazines. His father found a photo of him in one of them. He was at a party in heavy metal goth gear ... the list could go on really. Things are always so much worse when it is somebody you know, whereas only joy can come from embarrassing strangers!

And lose an ideal conversation-starter? No wonder fine up-standing citizens don't talk to me - clearly i don't carry ENOUGH hard core pronography around in my back pack to attract the right people.
