Totally In Right Now: Condoms

092906penn-condom.jpg
The Daily Pennsylvanian reports today on the ebb and flow of condom sales. Condoms are big on Valentine's Day, New Year's Eve and right now!

Sweet. I'm totally going out to buy some condoms right now so I can be part of this trend. But I surely won't be able to top the girth of the University of Pennsylvania's condom order: 50,000.

(Do you think there's a bidding process for the condom contract? Hopefully, Trojan and Lifestyles representatives come in with charts and statistics with the condoms' important stats -- length and width, breakage rate, etc. -- before the University makes such an important decision.)

The article doesn't really make enough puns about condoms, but it does include the key fact:

Condoms are available for free at the LGBT Center, the Penn Women's Center and other resource hubs. Student Health Services, Fresh Grocer and CVS Pharmacy carry them for purchase.

Straight guys? Yeah, you gotta buy your condoms. (Yes, yes, I know.)

Update, 2:45 p.m.: Shit! Look at their selection!

Or if you live on campus you can get them from your RA.

Well, unless like my friend you have a conservative RA who feels "uncomfortable" about giving out condoms. Rather than leave them in an envelope on the hall, she told her kids they would have to knock on her door and request one but only if it was "an emergency."

Cause that wouldn't be more awkward.

Yay Penn!

"Mint Condoms (oral sex)"

God damn they think of everything these days.
