Why does this happen every. single. time?
1. It starts with this hilarious and, clearly, recognizable tweet.
2. It inspires people to share their own hilariously awkward stories.
A group of us were watching Game Of Thrones at my sister’s hunting lodge. No one was supposed to be staying or checking in. A couple walked into ask about booking a room, their car had broken down. They chose to do it in the middle of a sex scene. pic.twitter.com/6OPR2U6puh

3. Is it a dad thing?
This was the story of my life with my dad. Everytime I was watching something that was getting even just a little racy, he would walk in the room. It’s like he had a sixth sense for it. 😂😂😂

4. IT EVEN HAPPENS WITH BOOKS.
I was reading Barker’s ‘Books of Blood’. My father picked up one volume and found the one page with a gay sex scene in the entire novel. It led to quite an awkward conversation.

5. And in case you were thinking video games are safe… think again.
Imagine 12-15 hours of tense stealth missions, high-octane firefights, as well as topical sociopolitical commentary, only for Dad to walk in during the five minutes Raiden is doing naked cartwheels while evading enemy soldiers. #MetalGearSolid #perfecttiming pic.twitter.com/u213griA6O

6. What kind of monster…
One time I was buying something off craigslist from a teen (a teen!) and I walked in to his house right as the fingerbang scene in Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist started and he LEFT IT ON

7. Wait… it’s not?
Lol throwback to me watching OitNB and my dad comes down during a sex scene and says “What is this, a show about girls having sex?”

8. Imagine being stuck on an intercontinental flight with this.
9. That sounds unbearably awkward…
@careygarneau I will never forget when Corey’s dad came downstairs during the “bear fucker” scene in Super Troopers. I wanted to die.

10. This is 100% true.
it’s in the boy scout manual, if you’re ever lost in the woods, just put on Requiem for a Dream and right when it gets to the Jennifer Connelly scene at the end (you know the one) your parents will appear.

11. Let this be a lesson for all of you.
After reading all of your stories I think the lesson here is to start watching porn with your dad so as to prevent future awkwardness
