		<description>What&apos;s really poignant about the demo video: The condom goes on, 1-2-3! There you have it! Instant! And then that ebony phallic object. Just sits there. In silence. Ready. Waiting. Infinitely patient. Hard. Waiting...</description>

		<description>If you need a complex, compound machine to put a condom on and/or if you absolutely must put a condom on in one second you&apos;re totally doing it wrong.

&lt;small&gt;Unless, of course, you&apos;re skydiving, under water, on a roller coaster, sexing it up in microgravity on a plane and/or suborbital flight, mere seconds away from dying via nuclear war or catastrophic meteor strike and/or otherwise fighting off sharks/tigers/polar bears/Chuck Norris.

Because every second counts, then. But only then.&lt;/small&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Let&apos;s face it, using an ordinary condom is a real pain in the butt. First, you have to tear the pack open, often using your teeth. Then you have to take the condom out of the pack &#8211; this is a slippery business at the best of times. Next, you have to figure out which is the right side up, before you can unroll it. By the time the condom&apos;s on, the mood is halfway out the window... &lt;/i&gt;

		<description>The ads are great, they poke fun at Deputy President Jacob Zuma and Health Minister &lt;a href=&quot;http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/924889.stm&quot;&gt;Manto &lt;/a&gt;Tshabalala-Msimang. He had unprotected sex with and HIV positive women and claimed &lt;a href=&quot;http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4879822.stm&quot;&gt;he showered afterwards&lt;/a&gt;. And she suggested people with HIV will be cured if the eat more &lt;a href=&quot;http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4433455.stm&quot;&gt;beets, garlic and other veggies&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

		<description>loquacious : &lt;em&gt;mere seconds away from dying via nuclear war or catastrophic meteor strike and/or otherwise fighting off sharks/tigers/polar bears/Chuck Norris.&lt;/em&gt; 

Wouldn&apos;t said sexing up moments from inevitable death obviate the need for a condom?</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Wouldn&apos;t said sexing up moments from inevitable death obviate the need for a condom?&lt;/em&gt;

Good point, but if you think about it you just might survive said nuclear Chuck Norris polar bear attack after catching something nasty and/or concieving what would undoubtably be a radioactive Chuck Norris polar bear mutant hybrid freak.

In short, it&apos;s never too late to think about the future.</description>

		<description>Sure, but then you have the opportunity to raise the radioactive Chuck Norris polar bear mutant hybrid freak as your own. You could train it to defend you and keep your bunker lit at night with it&apos;s pale green glow. Also, it would be able to bring you penguins which it dispatched by way of a mighty round house kick. 

Though by using a condom in the &quot;end moments&quot; you are better protected from getting the radioactive clap. And I hear that kinda sucks, what with the itching, the burning sensation, the actual burning...

So I guess I have to concede your point.</description>
