hell once you've stopped to put on a condom
then you scan it on your phone?
well, i guess you scan it before you put it on . . .

Here's what's fancy: Discovery News reports that Planned Parenthood of the Great Northwest has distributed 55,000 condoms around local colleges and universities that feature implanted QR codes, which track when and where people have sex. The reported data is then collected on a website called WhereDidYouWearIt.com.
It's sort of the Foursquare of sex: each condom has a barcode which the user can scan with their Smartphone to upload their location as well as general details of their sexual experience (anonymously). An unconventional way to promote public health? Yes. But it does sound kind of fun, right?
A rep for Planned Parenthood says of the check-in system: "Condoms are an essential tool in preventing unintended pregnancy and stopping the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV... We hope the site promotes discussions within relationships about condoms and helps to remove perceived stigmas that some people may have about condom use. Where Did You Wear It attempts to create some fun around making responsible decisions."

now that might be fun....random odd ball scans
That's why this is a stupid idea... college kids are going scan these in strange places whether they have sex there or not.
was like a picture

now Ive heard everything. prank scans do sound like fun... Id ship them all over to friends around the world to do it in weird places
you should bring a case to the Chicago party at the end of the month....we could have an orgy...although, with teh boy/girl ratio shaping up at 4/1...the girls could be tired by the end of the night.
now you're tempting me...

You go and have your funsies...don't you have 4 dates for dinner?
- Christopher McCandless
Four dates? :shock:
This, at the very least, would require dinner at Charlie Trotters...
make sure you also order the most expensive bottle of wine that they have...

:shock:
closest walmart? KY in bulk might be necessary.
scan a bunch of them simultaneosly at a Planned Parenthood office...that'll make things interesting!
How does that read?
in out in out in out in out....
Trust me, my expectations for the orgy are quite tempered...
that Trotter place looks pretty pompus...
