I'll cut to the chase : Band-Aids (or plasters
for GB based 'bakers), with the familar sterile
inner surface and a bubble-wrap outer. Heals
and protects from future knocks.

Mothers everywhere would have to switch from stop picking at that to stop popping that. |

Now I won't care what my sore thumb sticks out like. |
|
|
sorry but I keep thinking - bubble wrap mouth gag with helium. |
|
|
Wouldn't they get popped by eager and bored kids within seconds, rendering them nearly useless? |
|
|
of course. that's why it's a Halbakery idea. |

Bun - I'd buy them. I'd pay double if each little bubble had a mild anaesthetic which was released onto the sore area when popped - doing away with the need for pill popping. |

I once went to a party where one girl decided to remove her regular attire, and wrap herself in a big sheet of bubble wrap. The effect was interesting, visually, it was like talking to someone through a misted glass shower-divider. She was also of course, the centre of attention, what with everyone wanting to pop one her bubbles. |

Did it make her look more naked? |

By the end of the night, I don't think there were any bubbles left unpopped. There's a disturbingly vivid memory of her being rolled around the floor by a number of eager young men, while she gleefully cackled and popped as she went. At some point, someone smacked her bum, at which point all the money Kellogs put into marketing Rice Crispies turned out to be a complete waste of time. |

Ever since, I've not been able to wrap anything in cling-film, bubble wrap or any other transparent plastic without indulging in questionable reminisánce. |
