Because of work, married men in Japan are sometimes forced to live separately from their families for a very long period of time.
The social phenomenon, called tanshin funin (literally “posting without family”), is oftentimes chosen by households instead of moving the entire family to a new location. It has become quite a common practice for some Japanese companies to periodically transfer employees to different offices in a way to keep things fresh in the workplace.
It’s the kind of set-up that Japanese Twitter user @terajun6966 is currently in, where he is forced to live away from his wife and children, causing him some unavoidable problems.
Everything seemed to be going just fine until one day when his wife sent a photo of a beautifully drawn image of a Japanese student. Also seen in the image is a portion of a schoolgirl-themed DVD porn.
Apparently, his wife came across some actual “dirt” under his desk when she went to clean his home office room.
According to SoraNews24, while the cover suggested the video featured teenagers, the actresses on it are at least 20 years old.

Still, @terajun6966’s wife would rather have his porn stash disposed of.
“Found this under your desk. I’ll just crack it in half and throw it away for you,” the thoughtful wife wrote.
It was not actually the first time his wife gave him an anime-style illustration to notify him of being caught with his “hobby”. Back in 2012, a similar incident happened when his wife discovered a USB drive filled with erotic images tucked inside one of his shirts.
That time, the note said:
“I was shaking out the laundry, and this fell out of one of your dress shirts. I guess I don’t really mind? Yeah, I guess.”
Considering that his wife has caught @terajun6966 before, he should have at least been a bit more careful, especially if he finds it difficult to ditch his old habit. Or maybe he just loves getting those cool drawings?
