when i was young i used to go on holidays with my parents to beach resorts. on one of these holidays i found a snake skin so i picked it up and showed it to my sister, who was quite older than me. she got really scared and told me to put it down so i startedwaving it in her face and chasing her with it.
later on when i was about 18 i told a large group of people that my sister was scared of snakes, and recounted the holiday story. she decided it was best to tell me at that moment that what i was waving was a used condom.
