Coming in twos

What’s the similarity between teabags and condoms? Not the fact that they both leak icky fluid if you buy cheap ones. If you get a big box of johnnies, or a big bag of teabags, the items inside are always joined together in pairs. Why?

With teabags… hmmm. Maybe it’s to make people who make a cup on their own seem pathetic and lonely. Like Mr Tetley is saying "You should have friends". Or perhaps we all drink our tea too weak and it’s supposed to be made with two bags per cup.

Condoms, however, should only be used one at a time. Unless you’re desparate to deaden the sensation far enough that you don’t pop your cork too quickly in which case any sensible person would just get the extra safe, made-from-the-rubber-of-four-old-welly-boot type. I just can’t think of a situation where two people would need a condom at the same time.

Erk. Actually, thinking for the briefest of seconds maybe I can. But I’m filthy so let’s let that one slide.

The only reason I’ve found for it is if you’re trying to separate them into singles to put them in your wallet, at least one will end up tearing off the perforations and ripping the packet open slightly. End result being that you’ve got to buy more sooner, and you’re compelled to have a posh **** so as not to waste it.

Marketing people, eh? *tut*

Last time I bought them they were connected in threes.

But the teabags were individual.

I thought a posh **** was when you kept your pinkie finger extended?

Mosh

Alan made me laugh and wins today’s price. It’s either a used teabag or a used condom – I’ve not decided yet. Send me your address, Alan!

(hur, hur)
