This is a question Too much information

Rakky writes "A friend of mine, when quizzed why she was late to the pub, announced 'I was at accident and emergency, having a stuck tampon removed. They had to have a right old dig around for it.' Suffice to say, no one was interested in their Scampi Fries after that."

When have you shared just that little too much?

Several involving my ex-girlfriend
But I can't say the worst ones, because we're still friends and she would kick the everliving shite out of me were I to post them. So a quick rundown on the lightest TMI's she did.
1) As a result of having Crohns' disease she now has an ileostomy bag. She takes great pleasure in showing people this within about three seconds of meeting them
2) Once, at a family meal at a restaurant, I offered to share some of my prawns. She said "sorry, last time I had those my poo turned that colour" and pointed at my mother's lurid green brooch
3) After about three weeks of us starting to go out, I began to be given full details of her periods. A running commentary, if you will.
Finally, and I'm not too sure about posting this one, but I figure I can match her frankness
4) Not long after getting out of hospital with the ileostomy bag she came to visit me at uni and there was an ... accident, at about 5 am. Naturally, she was mortified by this, but I sorted it by throwing out the soiled things, letting her carry on sleeping on my other clean things, then staying awake so I could be at the shops immediately as they opened so I could buy replacement bedclothes. That was all fine. The TMI came when she was speaking about this to my Mum, who heard all of the details, including how X had woken up to feel liquid poo dripping down her side

The real story I want to post is this one, though, and doesn't involve the ex. This happened when I was about 12. My best friend at the time was a fair bit better off than I was, and his family occasionally took me to the theatre with them on a school night, and I'd stay the night afterwards. This was one of those nights.
In the car on the way home he was being an arse to his mum. Kept on asking her for ridiculously expensive things for his birthday. Wanting to know if she'd cook him something when we got back to their house. Asking her to stop at the pizza place to get a takeout. Being, as I said, an arse.
This caused his mum to get more and more irritated, and it reached a certain critical mass where she said, in a terrifyingly calm voice "Would you like to know how I found out I was pregnant with you?"
"Erm... yes." My friend said.
"Well," she said, "your dad liked to have sex with me especially when I was on my period. And when I didn't come on for ages, we had to get checked up"
My friend shut up, and barely spoke for the rest of the evening. So I played on his Nintendo and beat his high scores and was glad I wasn't him.
The best bit? The kid was ginger, and was thereafter always known as Red by those in the know. And thanks to me, there were quite a few people in that position.
