    Right so last night , fairly pissed ,with two friends, we go to the local 24 hour garage, and we were mucking around and after getting rake loads of food we thought it would be funny to buy condoms and blow them up and wear them as hats (we're so mature!!!) and the guy in the garage was like, no, you're too young. WELL, not only am I 18, but since when is there a legal age for buying condoms???

    You were obviously acting the boll*x in his shop and he just wanted to tell ye to politely F off.

    Or else he fancied one of your mates.

    That's pretty irresponsible of the person working in the shop. Would they rather teenage pregnancies?

    There used to be a legal age; from 1985 to 1992 (I think) you had to be over 18 and could only buy them from a chemist. In 1992 the law was liberalised so now anyone can buy them and any shop can stock them if they want.

    1. Why automatically assume I'm a man?
    2. We didnt have condoms on our heads, which is the reason I started the thread lol

    Last time I heard that pun I laughed so hard I fell off my dinosaur :)

    There is no age. Condoms can be bought by anybody, anywhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,825 ✭✭✭Fart


    Well if you were a female, you wouldn't be going into Tesco all pissed, you'd be at home on the phone to your girly friends crying about some bloke.

    Honestly I think yourman at the Garage acted like an eejit and should have sold them to you.

    But if you come on here complaining about not being sold condoms to put on your head don't expect much sympathy.

    I understand the principle (could have got preggnant etc.) but to be fair the whole idea was a bit stupid really.

    This guy wanted to ruin your life OP...

    Fecking eejit. Everyone knows you sell them the condoms after you've poked holes in them.

    Don't see why he wouldn't have sold them to you.
    He should be happy of the customers! :pac:

    Yeah I understand that but wouldn't it make more sense to sell them the condoms and get rid of them? :confused:


    Instead of getting a load of abuse/hassle for not selling something like that(not saying you did OP) I'd sell it to shut them up :D

    Wouldn't it wreck your hair?

    I'd sell it to them too. It is irresponsible of him not to and there is no legal age.

    And fair point about getting rid of them.

    Actually you are not a girl and I have proof:
    eating a yorkie being on boards. ie what im doing now.

    See you were eating a yorkie.

    I dont think I have ever seen/heard off a girl wanting to put a condom over her head before...
    It is actually a quite dangerous thing to do, if you dont do it properly..(I've never done it, But a friend did it once and nearly passed out when he got his breathing wrong..)

    Obviously, you don't buy too many packs of condoms either...Beacuse the price is crazy..
