In the Valentine aisle at Wal-Mart, mixed in amongst the chocolates and cutesy stuffed bears holding hearts and pink and red decorations, there is a very tasteful display of Trojan condoms. Packages of Ultra Thins and something called a Pleasure Pack, with a quantity of 12 crossed off and replaced by 14. This is where I fail to resist making the following observation, hmmm, more bang for your buck. Also on the display are cards to take containing information on birth control and STD's. Trojan's slogan is evolve-use a Tojan every time. Which naturally I overthought. If evolution takes place through natural selection and the passing on of desirable genetic traits, thereby producing hardier offspring who are more likely to survive and reproduce and successively pass on desirable traits to their offspring...doesn't the use of a condom effectively prevent this from taking place? Pass the chocolate.
Now I am convinced that society has gone around the bend. What are the school kids doing for Valentines Day? Probably don't want to know.
ReplyDeleteAround the bend and back again. Have some chocolate and go to your happy place.
ReplyDeleteThat exact same display of condoms made me laugh for a good five minutes.
