Awkward Moment

Posted in: Life & Culture

Now I have a lot more stories where this comes from...

Tuesday, I was walking down the Infinite with my advisor where SAVE (Save A Vital Earth) was promoting an energy campaign titled "Do It In The Dark."

As part of their campaign they were handing out flyers and glow in the dark prophylactics. After being handed said item, I quickly hid it in my pocket.

My advisor: "What was that they were handing out?"
Me: "Candy."

I had a Pinocchio moment. What would you have done?

*curious*



(also, what would you have done if your professor wanted to try said candy...?)

I just had a major LOL moment when I pictured that scene.

I am a pre-frosh who went back to MIT last Tuesday. And I saw the glow-in-the-dark things, but I didn't take them. Um...yeah, I was shocked to see people handing those things out. lol.

If a glow-in-the-dark prophylactic is what I think it is, I wouldn't have picked it up. smile

Who wouldnt want a glow- in-the dark prophylactic thing? I think it would be hillarious just to own.



Wow, that is an awkward moment though...Candy is a good one.

reminds me of the camo condom - 'don't let 'em see you coming!'

But what if your advisor went back and saw what they really were? :x Ahhh, even more awkward..



There's a really great quote from Bridget Jones's Diary about colored condoms - she envisions "brightly colored rude bits". :D
