A soft padded ring which slips over and encircles your face. Use when kissing someone who has much bigger lips/mouth than yours, eliminating the risk of your face being swallowed.

It's good the penile ring has been invented.
-- FarmerJohn, Oct 06 2002


These were popular in Elizabethan times. Didn't save Walter Raleigh's face though, which left him when his head did.

My mama taught me, if you don't want to kiss, light up a cigarette.

If I pull up my trouser pockets, it looks like a pair of rabbit ears. I said nothing about a carrot.
-- thumbwax, Oct 06 2002


I dunno. Has *anyone* ever actually had this problem?
-- DrCurry, Oct 06 2002


Just how much bigger we looking at [Helium], and whatcha doing kissing that hippo anyway?
-- blissmiss, Oct 06 2002


[bliss] Hippo lips tend to be a tad leathery - which is why I prefer the gentle, quivering lips a horse. The blowing of warm breath down the neck, the inquisitive nosing in my hair, nothing beats a full, sensual pair of horse lips. Slimey green gooblies across my shoulder really are a small price to pay.

I worry that this idea was inspired by a true-to-life experience.

you have told us nothing - as per usual - you Helium person. tell all now.

Woops...I did the old "delete it before anyone sees it but po was too quick" thing.

{I was hoping for: a "Dune" style shield that pops into place when your too-much-perfume aunt tries to kiss you.}

Dune style wheelrim.

po: Helium's all but said that it was/is a horse whose kiss she desires, but for the fear of being swallowed. Helium, don't worry, a horse cannot swallow you. It cannot even swallow an itty bitty bunny rabbit like me. Horses are vegetarians. However, when a horse bites, it can take out a big chunk. For that reason, I would think very carefully before engaging in mouth-to-mouth activity with a horse.

po is very perceptive

//Horses are vegetarians//

Tell that to the horse I had that ate BBQed sausages.
-- Helium, Oct 08 2002


That is one kinky horse, is all I can say. I hope it's not the one you're dreaming of.

-- rabbit, Oct 08 2002


I suppose one good thing about kissing men is that they don't snort snot all over you at random.
-- Helium, Oct 08 2002


I think all you need is one of those mucus-vacs (see link) size superlarge. Apply to your sweety, prior to kissing. Or you could try me ...... >!!<

-- rabbit, Oct 08 2002


I think that'd be a fewony, wittwe wabbit.
-- thumbwax, Oct 08 2002


How so? Is it a felony to kiss a rabbit?

-- rabbit, Oct 08 2002


(Waugsqueke) From memory, the Dune shield exhibited custard-like tendencies, in that it deflected fast moving objects but was penetrated by slow moving ones. Hence it would be ineffective against the slow eyes-closed-lips-extended advance of a perfumed aunt. If instead Helium's device can be whipped into place at the last second, it would maybe serve as an adequate defence. Croissant.

Ah, this explains everything!. For years women have been telling me to put a bag over my head. Now I know why.
-- DrBob, Oct 08 2002


Tip: If you crinkle the bag up, it makes you look older

Last time I kissed a rabbit it peed on me.
-- Helium, Oct 09 2002


You're not having much luck with animals, are you?
-- rabbit, Oct 09 2002


Rabbits' hairy lips make them less desirable kissers, although still more desirable than John Oates. I prefer hamsters or voles.

Ummm, I personally believe that a head-in-mouth, uvula-to-the-lips kiss is the best kind. And the rarest, methinks, as only a few splendid individuals are blessed with the gift of head-swallowing.

I am having a difficult time picturing the mechanics of this device. Would it be like a jumbo-sized Elizabethan collar type thing to stop your partner's lips from moving over your hairline?

Which makes me wonder if a similar device might not be employed for victims of hoof-in-mouth disease.
-- polartomato, Oct 09 2002


Rabbits lips are no more hairy than those of hamsters or voles! Don't you dare slander rabbits!! Would you kiss a hamster? Bleccch. Rabbits have both personality and sweet soft mouths. Our downy fur enhances our appeal.
