Condom Flash Drive Protects Your Data

Flash drives are a dime a dozen these days. In fact, I get so many of them handed to me at media events, that I could probably build a 10 terabyte array out of the ones I have stashed in my desk drawers. Despite their ubiquity, I still like to hang onto the more unusual drives. Take, for instance, these flash drives that look like condom wrappers.

Just tear open the wrapper and gently slide the connector into your computer’s USB port. Your data is now protected from all manner of computer transmitted diseases. Okay, it really won’t be any more secure than any other flash drive, but that just sounded good. But I definitely can guarantee your computer won’t get pregnant.

They’re available from the wacky minds at Brando, who have previously brought us such wonders as the giant mouse, bomb-shaped MP3 player, and the world’s most uncomfortable game controller.

Test-driving LELO’s ‘condom of the future’

I'm not proud of it. As someone who's at high risk for HIV infection, I have a spotty relationship with safe sex. I came of age in the '90s, when rappers like Salt-N-Pepa and Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes frequently spit rhymes about rubbers. I volunteered i...

Pizza Condoms Come in a Pizza Box: It’s Not Delivery, It’s a Condom

This may be the best combination of pizza and sex that I have ever seen. Whether your girlfriend ordered up pepperoni or sausage, she will be happy that you came prepared.

These Pizza Condoms are from designer Marina Malygina. The concept is a set of five condoms wrapped in pepperoni pizza packaging and stacked into a tiny pizza box. Pretty cute.

There’s no protection like pizza protection. Besides everyone knows that the pizza boy always gets all the action.

Like the AIDS scare which proved very real, rumors of a sex superbug which is about to invade the private lives of millions of Americans has proven to be nothing but humbug (no pun intended)....
    


The Slingshot Channel Takes Aim at Bill Gates’ Condom Challenge

If you have been following nerd news at all, then you know that Bill Gates has issued a challenge through The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. They are offering $100,000(USD) to the person who can come up with the best idea to improve on condom technology.

That’s not as easy a task as it sounds, but our pal Joerg Sprave at The Slingshot Channel is on top of things and came up with a solution that could one day make condoms easier to apply. There are a few kinks to work out first though.

This slingshot is pretty good at applying a condom at point blank range. They just have to work on the whole distance thing. Plus, this has got to hurt when applied to an actual person.

Bacon Condoms: Pork for Her Pleasure

Guys hate condoms right? But everybody loves bacon. Now everyone will want to use condoms since they come in… bacon flavor. Like the box says, they “make your meat look like meat.” Now that bacon condoms exist, no children will ever be born again. Because… bacon.

These bacon condoms come from J&D’s (the guys who made Bacon Salt) and aside from making your junk look like bacon, they have “baconlube”, an ultra premium water based meat flavored personal lubricant. You can’t go wrong with that. Or can you? Now you can make bacon in the bedroom as well as on the stove.

I’m pretty sure this is an April Fool’s joke, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t an idea whose time has come.

Tongue Cover Promises to Help You Swallow Those Bitter Pills

We’ve seen some bizarre projects turn up on Indiegogo and other crowdsourced funding sites over the years. However, the Tongue Cover may well be the most bizarre ever.

The product is designed to cover the taste buds on the tongue so you don’t taste the disgusting liquid medicines you have to swallow when you’re sick.  On the surface, it sounds like a pretty good idea.

As a parent, I’ve literally had to sit on my kids before to get them to take antibiotics. That said, I think the odds of getting a kid to slide what amounts to a condom over their tongue are just about as slim as getting them to willingly swallow their medications – if not worse.

I’m not trying to be humorous either, the pre-production prototype absolutely looks like a condom. The product is only recommended for single use due to hygienic and legal reasons according to the creator of the Tongue Cover.

You might think making tongue condoms would be an inexpensive proposition. Apparently, it’s not, the project is seeking $70,000(USD) by March 30, 2013, and as of this writing has raised a whopping $46. If you can’t live without this tongue cover, 25 bucks will get you 30 of them with an estimated delivery in May.
