a bit mild
One time after we'd been married for about 12 years we were doing some cleaning and going through stuff. I found a stack of photographic slides. Those of you old enough remember that you didn't always get prints. Sometimes you just got slides.
I didn't recall any slides from anywhere in our marriages so I picked them up and started looking at them. They chronologically documented her descent from sobriety (I think) to passed out drunk during a drinking game. Sorry, no nudes or topless. Notoriously hard to get in those days.
The interesting part is that I didn't recognize a single soul in the pictures, and I knew a LOT of her best friends in college. And nobody had ever mentioned a separate group of partying friends.
So I asked her, "what is this about and who are these people?" She just got real annoyed and said, "That's just some grad students I used to party with in college." I always knew she had party hard in college and I suspected that there was some group action along the way. And I think I found the group.
