my (at the time closeted) step brother sent my mom a picture of a penis, she freaked out, he said the cell company must have crossed its wires bc he had sent a pic of a puppy. and then the genius part, he doubled down and re-sent the penis to prove something was wrong.

I told the guy that sold me my car that I loved him and I hate it when he works weekends. I told my wife thanks for dropping the paperwork in the mail.

I once sexted my friend, Rachel (instead of my wife, Rachel) and she responded, "I think this was meant for a different Rachel, but am happy to know that two people I love so dearly still take this much pleasure in each other after all their time together."
