buying condoms

[Unknown Entity]

Surely it would only lead to ringworms from an already present infection? Everybody had a moist nether regions, we're fungal bacteria can and will grow daily. Doesn't mean you'll have ringworm, or there'd be much more than just twenty-percent of the population with it. Showers are important, guise.

You can also get ringworm from a cat scratch, from petting a dog, and swimming in a pool. Just WALKING in a locker room can infect you.

Buying condoms, eh?

I adhere to a long standing Toast:

"To Rattlesnakes and Condoms! Sh*t I don't F*** With!"

I've never been shy about my sexuality or body, so... I've just gone ahead and bought them wherever. If people give me that "knowing" look, I would just start humping the air and wiggling my eyebrows at them until I had to get money out of my pocket. Sometimes I did that anyways to just make it uncomfortable for them.

I've never been uncomfortable with it either. Just grab a box of Skyn brand (thin enough it don't kill the feeling) and pay for them with the rest of the junk I buy from Big W. I've never really gotten the big deal - everyone responsible enough to want to prevent various STDs buys the bloody things.

just use the self check out tills, job's a good 'un

I bet condoms are flagged for "please wait for assistance" when you self scan. XD

They might be, depending on where it is. Don't places still require you to be 18 to buy condoms?

I just looked at the related threads and found this gem of a title:

Lesbians, condoms go wild in attack on Christian church

that would actually be mortifying hahaha

i dont see why they'd get flagged though, its not like they are knives or medicine or anything, the most irresponsible thing you could do with a condom really is put it over your head and suffocate yourself, and let's face it you can do that with a carrier bag

The first time I tried to buy them, I went to a little bodega a neighborhood or two away from mine, and the cashier told me I was too young to be buying condoms. I told him that I was too young to be a dad. He replied that you couldn't knock someone up your first time.

I was 15, going upstate with my parents and brother. How or why I thought I was going to get laid was beyond me, but the exchange was hilarious. I remember talking to cloud711 (oldschool name drop!) about going to a county fair, and he said something about upstate girls being easy, especially at fairs. I was so nervous and did so much internet research on them. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall to see that exchange again.

erhmahgerd, some one under 18 might have sex, better prevent safe sex, that'll make it better!

Stupid shit gets flagged all the time on those self check-out counters that it is often faster to wait for a cashier. I went to Lowes the other day to buy an air filter and the damn thing wants me to wait for assistance. Um, it's just an air filter, it isn't like I was buying a plastic bucket, boxes of matches, and some tubing. Regardless, having an associate "help you" ring up some condoms just adds another layer of complexity to something and the possibility for awkwardness. Of course, I'd make it awkward for everyone around me rather than myself. "SERIOUSLY? I don't need ASSISTANCE scanning CONDOMS!" *awkward silence from people nearby*

i got id'd for paracetamol, Id understand if i was at a fast lane that time, but it was some cashier. Use some common ****ing sense woman

Also, I didnt actually think there was an age restriction on packets of condoms... which is why Im confused.... im gunna have to go check now....!

TIME TO RAID THE BOYS UNDIE DRAWER!

Edit* Nope, not age restricted, at least not here in the UK.. but these ones were security protected, probably to stop some idiot opening the packet and poking holes through the packets thinking they are funny

or maybe Ive just got a suspicious mind haha.
