i use used condoms

Ah, Japan. a country that provides you with an umbrella condom to wrap your brolly in so you can walk into a building and leave it in the umbrella rack. or keep it with you as the case may be. Stupid? Yes. Handy? Perhaps? Ecologically friendly? No. and yet, witness the hardened stares of disbelief by staff and patrons if you walk into their building without one. so i've started using used umbrella condoms.

basically, its your umbrella is in one for a very limited amount of time. and the only thing wrong with it (usually) is that its wet. on the INSIDE. hardly a problem.



frankly, its easier to use a used one. these things are impossible to open and apply. and if your hands are otherwise occupied, its a snap to insert your umbrella into a condom that's been rolled down and ready to go cuz it was only discarded a minute ago. not that the freshness of the used condom is that vital.

but, you ask (or you don't), what happens if there's fluid (rain) in the tip? just shake it out and its good as new! so don't be a jerk. give used umbrella condoms a chance. the environment thanks you.
