Condoms..
Okay, so today our HPA came around giving "condies" (condoms + a candy =/) Anyway, since they won't be of use to us, a lot of people on my floor were wondering where we can "return" them, I mean it's better than throwing them out, no ?

Collect them and drop them off at the SHEC office(Or so I think its called) on the second floor of the student Center Next to the MSU Office. They have to buy their condoms(The one's they give out for free) hence would appreciate any donations!

As for Candies(If they aren't useful to you) drop them off at the SRA office next doors

Haha, thanks Huzaifa! I wasn't sure if we could do that or not! Exactly, they paid money for it, so I'd feel guilty if I just threw it out .

It's like one starburst per condom (which I personally wouldn't eat just because they were in the same bag. But I might be grossed out too easily.. Do you still want the candy?
Thanks again!

Condoms generally last for up to three years (sometimes more - check the expiry date) as long as they're stored properly.

Also, condoms are expensive... saying "meh, we won't be using them" now is fine, but that doesn't mean you (or anyone else) won't be needing them eventually (and then have to pay for them). It's just my opinion, but I'd hold on to them just in case.

Exactly, since they're expensive I don't want to just throw it out, when it could be useful to someone else. Holding on to them.. not so much

Huzaifa, haha I'll be sure to drop off the candy at the SRA office

People on your floor are perfectly nice... well most of them >_<

I do question the logic of thier HPA giving condoms to everyone in a building with two all girls floors, I doubt condoms would get a huge amount of use in completely co-ed buildings...

LOL you'll be surprised with the stuff I've heard about Wally and all girl floors in other Rez :S

Apparently keeping the girls together/away from close access to guys is actually counter-productive! Which probably makes sense.

I don't understand... are you saying that people can't meet other people, whether it be in their rez or in other residences, or even outside of res?

Regardless, I think it's a good thing... even if some (or even most) of the people on the floor aren't interested in having sex, it doesn't mean they'll stand by it. The point is, you never really know... and having that free condom around is better than not.

I agree, but something like the "condom game," where people who aren't going to use it don't just feel like it's going to waste might've been a better idea than just handing out condoms to everyone.

It's a good idea to keep one around, just in case.

And, it's not like the candy is dirty. The condom is sealed (or at least it should be), so it shouldn't affect the candy at all.

You can return the condoms to your CAs! Or any of the CAs. They're asked to keep some around for any students on their floor who might just need one from time to time.
