The Perils of fixing PCs for relatives..

You all know the score.. someone in the family or a friend knows how to put a PC together, and they immediately become the goto guy for fixing the slightest little thing that goes wrong with your computer.
I'm that guy.
So anyway, my brother phones me last week and mentions that he has a minor problem with his laptop not turning on anymore. I agree to have a look at it, and meet up with him at the weekend.
Upon further inspection, I note that his laptop has a distinct aroma of Stella Artois.....
Basically, he thought it would be a good idea to play fetch with his hyperactive pet staffy bull terrier whilst relaxing with a beer and browsing the net. Needless to say, the beer ended up all over the keyboard and said laptop is now dead as a doornail.
Well, it was pretty much a lost cause, so I told my brother to claim it on the insurance, and in the meantime he asked me to try and recover all his holiday photos off the hard drive.
So, laptop now back at my flat last night, hard drive pulled out and hooked up to my pc via a USB caddy, and my bros entire user folder copying happily over onto my computer, and I decide to have a wee shufty about to see if he has owt interesting.
I find his stash of porn almost instantly, which ain't surprising considering he has a heathy 15 gigs of it. Most of it is your usual internet crap, but I spy a couple of decent vids which I stash away for future.. umm .. reference
And then I spy several more videos. Scat videos. All with such imaginative titles such as "Scat-3 Girls Shitting In 1 Girls Mouth".
Great, I did not need to know that.
And then to make matters worse, whilst checking that all his holiday photo's copied over ok, I can't help but notice that the vast majority of his holiday photos were taken in the hotel room. With my brother and his girlfriend, who he just got engaged to at New Years there, in all sorts of positions.
So fucking fantastic, I now know my brother is fond of the odd turd sandwich, and seen photies of my future sister-in-law and him en flagrente delicto.
How am I going to talk to either of em with a straight face again? :P

Is your future sister in law hot at least? I have no rules about that.
Acht, where's the fun in that though? :P
Also, I had the misfortune of finding out far too much about my boss within my first week of employment here thanks to using his old computer.
yeah...dude didn't clear his bookmarks or anything and he'd saved stuff to the hard drive.
do you get what i am hinting at
I found hardcore domination porn on her machine.
Everytime I see her and her husband I giggle.
Dinners there will be aaawwwkward
Especially pudding
Wow you're the only Scot I've ever known to actually write in his accent.
Yeah I guess you're right, but was it worth knowing such terrible things?
Basically, what I'm saying is that I think your charming sensors are fucked up.
Tossrock: Somolia, you know Mogadishu, Blackhawk down?
Qorzm: I'm sorry, I don't follow hip-hop
very yes (only the clean images though)
I know people like that.
I guess everyone needs a vent, yeah?
And that was how I discovered what BBW meant. Also, how disturbingly popular it seems to be amongst accountants.
Never.
Ignorance is bliss.
AmStaffs are probably my second favorite breed. If we didn't already have a house full of bulldogs, I'd definitely have one of them.
well just as long as he enjoys good scat movies and not bad ones
Enlighten us, because that's a funny thing to hear about.
mmmmmmf (aka military vs civilians)?
You only have to do that a couple of times before word gets around.
