When I was 14 I found the rubber finger bandage (that you roll it on your wounded finger to keep bacteria out) in the first-aid kit. I thought they were mini-condoms for men with small penises. I was angry at my 55 years old parents for still having sex at that age. I stomped out of the bathroom with a bunch of those in my hands and told them "I know what these are! I'm throwing those mini-condoms away!" My mom took a really good laugh and told me they are just for her injuried fingers!
