I'm suprised this isn't baked yet, considering the technology's available and already being used: most
"deli-sliced" cheese and lunch meats are packaged in thick plastic, zip-locked bags with a pre-perforated opening towards the top. One simply tears off the top of the package and a ziplock bag remains to keep the foodstuffs fresh. [obviously, condom packaging would have to be slightly bigger to accomodate the post-party bidness...but this should work] |
|
|
But putting the used condoms back in the same baggie the new ones are stored in would be horribly smelly. Also, there's the risk of getting them mixed up in a flurry. |
|
|
Hippo is probably referring to the plastic wrappers around each pad that have just enough extra tape to be used to wrap the *previous* pad, so that each but the last goes into the bin in its own cocoon. |
|
|
Smell? How long did you plan on keeping the evidence, hello_c? |
|
|
Regardless, Ziplock takes care of the smelly aspect...regarding the potential mix-up your on your own if you're so randy that you can't take the time to differentiate between the "used" and "un-used" pile. |
|
|
Er - if I have to throw them away before I'm done with the whole dozen, I might as well do so at the time, not pack them back into the cheese-packaging-like ziploc and carry them around so I can deal with them when they're even yuckier. Are you actually proposing two *separate* Ziplocs? I've never seen that on cheese and it's not clear in your first annotation. |
|

[hello_c] - I was indeed referring to the packaging you
mention which allows you to wrap the "previous" pad and
bin it - obviously in the case of condoms it would be the
packaging from the current condom that one would use -
which usually gets dropped down the side of the bed -
the chief difference between condoms and pads in this
respect being that with condoms you don't keep one on
until it's time to change it and put another one
on*.
[*] ...unless you have a _very_ active sex life. |

Or you just lob them into the trashcan, and dispose of them more properly later. In the heat of the moment, 'what do I do with the party balloon?' is not often a pressing question... |
|
|
<Tigerfully resists urge to post joke about reusing...> |
|
|
Confucious say: when you open a can of worms, you need a larger can to put them in. |
|
|
When they're in their packaging, they've been rolled to a compact size and put together by machines. In the field, nobody is going to A) be able to reroll them anywhere near as neatly, and B) going to want to try it once it's been expended. |
|
|
look, most men can't fold a map back to its original shape,
what makes you think they can tuck a condom back into
its own packaging? |
|
|
and women are too busy making mental notes and
comparing them, how can they possibly take over the task
of condom disposal? |
|
|
just toss them to the side and use those left over grocery
bags to pick 'em up like doggie doo. |
|
|
[fogfreak] You obviously haven't used condoms enough to realize sticking condoms back into their current packaging is a fools mission. |
|
|
I can. I can tie a knot in them with one hand too. Because one of the things I hate most in the world is used ones down the side of the bed. It's completely uncalledfor. |
|
|
Yeah, but can you tie a knot in a cherry stem with your tongue? |
|
|
for you, StarChaser, I'll try. |
|
|
<I can actually do it, once in a while...> |
|
|
this idea was already posted awhile ago, under the category of "condoms"... see link (yay, i figured out how to link stuff. it's not as hard as i'd thought :) |
|
|
Other way around, actually. That was posted long after this. |
|
|
It got considerably more croissants, though. |
|
|
Yeah! This idea should send round the bailiffs to seize that other idea's croissants on the basis of prior art. |
|
|
//this idea was already posted awhile ago... see link (yay, i figured out how to link stuff. // |
|
|
Good eye, urania: hippo's idea WAS posted some time ago...almost 8 months before the Ziploc Condom Packaging idea. (You've got the linkin stuff wired, I think you're ready to move on to reviewing ideas, annotations and their chronology.) |
|
|
But can you put one on with your mouth... |
|
|
Why not take pride in them and pin them up on the wall. That semi opaque drop thing could look rather sculptural once you had a whole lot up there. |
|
|
i'm sure in some foriegn country.. maybe japan that this is already being done.. but it would be very useful for people who dont want there parents to know there active.. |
|
|
my parents were at it like rabbits, oh I see. |
