Blowing Kisses   (+20, -2)  [vote for, against]
not a sex toy

Kisses are made of rice starch membrane tinted in pink or red; you flick them off the waxed paper gently with your tongue or lips and blow them into the breeze. They may travel to the intended or just bypass him/her and land on someone new!

For best results lips should be very dry and smooth.

Your blown kiss floats virtually weightless and attaches itself unnoticed to the stranger passing by. He arrives home unaware that there's a red kiss on his cheek, to be harangued by his suspicious/insecure wife. An argument ensues whereupon she takes a kitchen knife and he ends up another John Wayne Bobbitt.

If this gets to market it should carry a suitable warning about using it in public places and the risk of injury.

Assuming you get the necessary risk management in place, you get a bun from me.

You're not really a romantic type, are you?

//the necessary risk management//
1. All passers by within 200 yards to sign a consent form
2. All persons within 20 yards (including blower) to wear safety goggles and hair covering
3. A klaxon to be sounded three times before the kiss is blown
4. The kiss to be attached to the blower by a cord or thread at all times
5. Permits must be up-to-date and produced on request
6. Permit applicants must present themselves to the police station nearest to the proposed kiss-blowing site on the morning of the proposed blowing, no later than five hours before the proposed blowing event. Applicants must have with them the completed form, plus two forms of photo-ID and two forms of address-ID, plus authenticated references from two officially registered notaries
7. Sites must also be registered; site registration can only be applied for by the landowner one year in advance.
N.B. these are only summary rules. For a full list, please apply in writing (paper not electronic).

My homebrew version: a pair of foam rubber lips fired by handheld pneumatic cannon. Whoop!

Max, I expect you to supply the romance, I'm just supplying the delivery system.

+++ oh how sweet!!!! I want!

I'm an incurable romantic, but new antibiotics come out from time to time.

It's more important to pass around the joy in any form available, than to avoid offending an insecure sig. other.

i am not exactly won over. What shape is a floating blow-able manufactured starch membrane kiss?

Also how are they shipped?
-- vfrackis, Jun 04 2010


[vfra]I picture a waxed sheet of paper, the lip shape cut outs are very lightly stuck to the sheet, you might need to peel off a plastic top cover that protects the kiss until ready to use. Shipping? as in from the manufacturer, just sheets of paper in a bundle I guess. or if you mean how delivered ?, by a gentle breeze as stated that wafts from your position (a) towards the intended's position (b), don't think I can make it much clearer. But thanks for asking.

bigsleep, are you aware I am female? this idea is feminine
-- dentworth, Jun 04 2010


Females can be gay too.

//are you aware I am female? //

Don't be ridiculous. "Dentworth" is clearly a male name.

Awwwww... This is cute and it makes me want to airbrush lips onto the wings of butterflys and release them at random.

This will will be put to use in a target kissing booth at next year's county fair.
