Dude...that looks like something my best friend would put up all over town for a laugh. Not me, though. I have taste. But seriously...

Hey, it worked. Although it doesn't give a percentage for how many who hadn't seen the adverts were tested.

You know, if you don't notice a chancre on your genitals after having sex w/o a condom, then you deserve syphillis. Seriously.

Seconded I know someone who doesn’t like using a condom because it means paying for sex (promptly they have kept very quite about there love life after my little rant at them)

thats odd, because you can get condoms at health clinics or hospitals for free.

Thats what i was thinking too. Most gas stations have them in the toilet rooms for about .75 $

You mean pharmacy? Because when I hear "drug store" I always think of meths and stuff.

:eek: in Britain its usually £2 for a pack of 3 (about 3-4 dollars I'd say)

still apparently the bars in Malta leave out condoms so I think they get the best deal as long your condom doesn’t fail in which case your now a daddy

with syphillis :)

honestly, if you think about it, its in SAN FRANCISCO. and the street in the picture is Castro, the gay community. so, maybe, if men wouldnt think that they are bringing their SexyBack to their partner's "sexy back" :p this might not be a problem

In Australia it's called a "Chemist" but I think "Drug Store" is pretty appropriate. Calling drugs "medication" or "pharmaceuticals" just because they're prescribed by a doctor has always irked me.

Being able to buy a milkshake in a drug store (pharmacy or chemist's) ... now that's weird!

the condom can break, sometimes. i've broken two in a sitting (laying?) before.

:mad: stupid condoms.

My local drugstore actually has really good shakes and malts, among various other soda fountain products. And a true early 1900 soda fountain, jerks and all. Its actually pretty cool.

So its crude. If it gets the message through, then its worth it.

If there's one thing men listen too, it's their dick.

So I'd say using a speaking genital to promote health issues isn't as far-fetched as it might seem.

I usually get mine at my regular supermarket - and when people in line give you a strange look: embarrass them! Tell'em: "Yes, and not only do I buy'em - I'm going to use'em, too!"

Nothing beats shaking people up a little!

oh, or you could just make them laugh........"I am buying them for my friend, believe me you don't want him reproducing"

not that I ever get any weird looks either though..........I buy them for people who are too stupid or embarrassed to buy them for themselves.

oh, and on topic......I like the ad, it's funny.

That's a good one, too!

But it doesn't leave them with the image of me getting it on... :p

yeah, I use that with old people.

younger ones look at me weird (because I go in one day to buy condoms for 5 people, all different kinds) and I look at them and say "it's okay because I am a slut"

they look uncomfortable for a minute, then they chuckle, and I say "I really am" and they look uncomfortable again

it's great. :D

I think people need to get over buying condoms. OK, it's a bit embarassing the first once or twice, but after that you get over it...
And I should get them from the doctor's or the sexual-health clinic for free, rather than buying them from the supermarket, but I'm too lazy.

I once heard protected sex described as "like taking a shower in a raincoat" ... so there's another little joke in the ad.

It's not very well drawn, but hey ... if it works, good.

If the person you're (very poorly) railing against has no life, what about the person who bothers to post and tell him so?

By the way, Junior, when you learn that this isn't an IM or text message forum, you can ocmplain about others' posts.

One more thing, the subheading under the title "General" in the Forum lobby does say that General is for posts about -- wait for it -- ANYthing. That includes penises up to the point where the Mods get testy.

Yes, that was a horrid pun, and no, I'm not sorry.

Read my sig. I am named Mr. Bloozie. I called myself Nova Boozia back when I was still an RPing II infidel, and can't bear sacrificing my post count to make the name official.

And it's Bloozie! With an "IE"!

Then again, "Oberstgruppenführer von Blüzie" does sound pretty cool.
