why is this so embarrassing? surely it should be something to be proud of: "yes. I am going to have some fun sexy times soon. Oh yes.", but yet it isn't. at all.

Comments? Stories? Anything? ANYONE??

Go go gadget knob.

first ever time i bought condoms

i was expecting to be really embarrassed...i wasn't, i just bought them. that was that.


I'm 25

i still find it embarrassing and I really don't know why.


Well just don't use condoms

What harm can it do?


It's genius when you get a really lairy check out girl

serving you.

Last time I purchased some at a Sainsbury's the repsonse from the cashier was "check you out, gonna get some loving tonight ha?"


Retort:

"Yes, unlike you, you fat slag"


*punch*

*punch*


That's what should have said, clearly

I suspect I asked if I could get a refund if I didn't...


reasonable comeback

7/10


slags get as much lovin as they like

its what makes them slags


thats the genius of...

... being a woman.

double you , oh, emm, ay, enn.


My supervisor at work had to buy them from me once.

He hid them under loads of sweets. Seeing he was ovbiously embarressed about buying them from work, I quickly went and told everyone.


Evil.


Genius.


Buy them when...

...buying porn. Give the confused shop keeper and little wink and say "Posh wank".


^ genius


I cover my eyes with my hand,

start crying and get them to put it on at the counter.


i'm a girl and i don't mind

even though they're not 'technically' for me. i never feel embarrassed though. who cares? i figure that if the people working there find it 'funny' that i'm buying condoms, then they're the weird ones...


truth

i don't see the big deal

"hahahaha, that guy's getting laid"

not quite


HEY LOOK EVERYONE

TOBY IS HAVING SEX


also

i think i've bought one pack EVER. go team Relying On Her To Have Some!


^^^ so much this

'What do you mean you don't have any? You inconsiderate cow!'


:D

"ah, don't worry about it. i'll just sort myself out."


:)

'Well, this thing won't suck itself'

Too far?


oh richard.

HOW are we single?


It beggars beliefs doesn't it?

nb: I have a date on sunday. I'm betting it won't go well.


are you saying his

does suck itself?!?


Oh Sarky

you do make me laugh. You awful breed of a cunt.


i know what you meant

you tard.


Yeah, me

And all we is fuck, fuck, fuck with a side order of boffing


so you can see....

*this* ?


sick fucker.


JOHNNIES!


Just buy them in Tescos/Sainsbury's and use the self-service checkout

Surely that's one of the reasons that god gave them to us? So we wouldn't be caught buying embarrassing things like Lambrini


You still need staff to take them out

of the little anti-theft cases though?


I'd have thought so

Unless not everywhere tags them to stop theft? Maybe there is just a condom theft problem in Egham.

I don't know, Boots have a BOGOF deal and I'm a real man!


^ this is a great idea

i will do this.


In my

day we used to call them dobbers. Imagine my amusement when I went into a pharmacy called Dobbers in Tottenham recently to buy some...


but they come in massive theft proof security boxes

that the check out person has to remove. One time while working at tesco I couldn't get a pack of them out of their big plastic box. I had to get a supervisor over to go fetch some new ones. The whole situation was wonderfully embarrassing for everyone involved, except me. I was trying to stop myself bursting out in laughter :D


i really shouldnt find it embarassing

at all, and i still do it
but i do find that its a bit of an effort and i have to get into the right mind set

i literally cant buy them when theyre behind the counter tho. i hate buying anything behind the counter, cos it takes a little while for my voice to warm up and people to actually understand what i'm saying. its all about how narrowly you define the item - if i was desperate, and they just had one type of condom, itd be simply "condoms please", but as soon as i have to say "12 pack of durex fetherlite please" i feel like some kind of seedy condomisseur


Durex Fetherlite FTW

I've never had to buy them from behind a counter but I can see why this would be more embarassing than just picking them up


:D


"condomisseur"

:D


I'm getting deja vu here...

hmm - have you had sex before and told us???

doesn't bother me buying them :)

also, family planning clinics will give you bucketloads for free. making their name somewhat ironic.


no, not really

you wear a condom so that when you have a baby, it's planned, and not unplanned.

that's the point


no it wasn't me

i'm not usually the type to start the sexytime threads ;)


It's even funnier having to sell them to people

when I worked on the tills at a supermarket, whenever anybody bought them i thought "Am I meant to make this embarrassing for them? Should I give them just a quick glance to make them feel bad once they've left the store? Is this what people do?"


I put the porn DVDs in transparent bags

when I worked in MVC


:D

^5!


Oh dear

Memories of sending my ex to the local pub to buy some from the bogs. By the time she got back (having looked like a smackhead who went straight to the bogs and then left) the romantic ambience had fizzled somewhat.


I fucking hate those old school toilet condom machines

with the pully/drawer thing. They always stole my money


i'm sad, but the best thing ever

is using your Boots points to buy condoms.

it always makes me do a little inside lol.


Huh?

And why is it embarassing? It can actually be a fun thing to do...

ABANDON REPLY.


BOTTOM

Funnily enough i watched the pheromone spray ep of Bottom last night, in which they buy condoms from the pub toilet.

"One cheese and onion Union Jack tickler it is then! Bagsy first go!"
"No no no....get two."
"Two!?! You're a beast man!"
