Which condom is best?

I've never put this much thought into it.

God, what a fun research project!  I need a job at Slate.

At the risk of oversharing, I can second their recommendation of the Pleasure Plus.  They're a bit harder to find, but worth the effort.

Yeah, I am hell of weirded out by those warm-up ones.  Also, I don't think I could buy condoms called "Kimono" (with lotus leaves on the package no less) without being concerned that the clerk was gonna think that I was into... like... anime and stuff.  

I guess it wouldn't be as bad as having to be seen with the "Extended Pleasure" ones, though.

***Possible Too Much Information Alert***

Got those once.  On accident, I swear!  They, well, sucked.  Instead of extending the pleasure they actually kinda minimized it.  Luckily we had a couple normal ones left, so I was able to switch.  Then I threw the rest of the Extended Pleasures away, which I hate doing because condoms are kind of expensive.

I'm pissed because if I ever do get my junk pierced, I'm going to have to buy specialty condoms from Japan, and yeah, they might think I was into anime.
But I might get a job at a sex shop, so everything works out!

So you hold "taking a job in a sex shop" as "I have lived a happy and fulfilling life"?

I once was offered a job at Erotic Cabaret in Houston, but turned it down because they needed me to stay through the holidays and I was planning on going home to California.  

I think my life would have been somehow different if I had taken that job.  More fulfilling, I'd say.

This is all well and good, but I am reminded that we still never got real closure on the No ##### Day game.

The last time I need to purchase condoms with any frequency I was dating a girl with a latex allergy which was a huge pain in the ass and required us to always to go one certain CVS that carried the plasticy kind.

Wow. I'd never realised that condom selections were such a nation absed thing. I'm not sure if it's possible to get any of those in the UK.
Although here you can get Virgin condoms. Yes, that's right... Not only are they called Virgin condoms, but they are from Richard Branson (or were 'til he, I'm sure, sold them off). They suck though, if you'll excuse the phrase in this instance.

All that said, you can probably buy American condoms online here.

The starting job is cleaning off the screens in the 25 cent arcade booths. You got the stomach for that, champ?

God, no I don't, but the place is just a shop. No room for a movie booth or anything.
And they sell Virgin condoms inside of Virgin megastores here, for a buck a pop, which is TOTAL bullshit. Fuck you, Branson. FUCK YOU.

To be fair, he has nothing to do with Virgin Megastores anymore either. But still, fuck you, Branson!

Oh, and, dude... Don't do it! I couldn't even get my tongue pierced.

Well, I'm getting my septum done in a few weeks, maybe. If I can deal with that, I'll start putting more serious thought into the penile barb. It's still in the realm of jokes now, but if I'm okay with the needle going into my face, I'll slowly phase out the laughter, maybe.

I like Branson as this bizarre joke character. He seems like the human Ray, to me at least, although since I'm usually an ocean away from him, you probably have different feelings towards him.

I can kind of see what you mean. Far too much money and a very inquisitive nature. All we get of him over here is him being terribly english, and then setting off in another fuck*ng balloon.
I don't dislike him, but I tend to find most of his endeavours utterly pointless.

As for piercings, I did always kind of mean to get one. I thought about eyebrow or septum, but kind of went off the idea. In the end I figured having a piece of metal stuck in my face would just annoy me in the end. I don't even wear a watch anymore.
