You should have titled this "Prophylaxis of Evil"

I wouldn't dream of trying. You're the villain we need now (as opposed to the actual villains destroying the world)

I am concerned about your microplastics consumption because I love you. But also this was great and I snort-laughed. Also hoping none of these were lubed.

Great start to Valentines Day! I like the "pink slime" idea above. Noting that Davida and the gang were wise enough to avoid participation in this venture! (Happy normal Valentines Day to you & Davida)

Next: make your own hotdogs.

Squirt pink slime into the varied sized condoms and sous vide them.

(I totally just offered this so I could suggest squirting pink slime into a condom)

Thank you for providing an email subject that brought me laughter. Such a bright spot amongst headlines of the death of our democracy. Now I'll go read the piece and hope to laugh some more.

You did not disappoint. The photography alone is Pulitzer worthy.

So Dannis Ree picked up on something I noticed as well. The standard "Litl Smokies" are TERRIBLE. I think they changed the recipe a few years back. They just don't taste right. However, if you buy the BEEF litl smokies, they do taste delicious like they're supposed to. Also the beef ones are easier to cram up your ass.

Are there any sous vide desserts? You could do one of those in a flavored condom.

He could probably poach a pear or maybe make creme brûlée.

Were the lube or latex additive in the flavors? This is partially a serious question, as I'm curious, but also I feel ridiculous asking it (though not as ridiculous as if I had eaten a hot dog cooked in a jimmy hat).

I didn't actually taste any lube/rubbery flavors in anything. I guess my general thought process was since this stuff has a chance of getting inside people's intimate parts, a little bit of eating it wasn't like the worst thing? Anyway bye forever maybe!!!

There’s a reason those sausages slid down so readily. And he’s already a lube connoisseur.

If you ever walk in there with a limp the courtesy clerk (bag boy) will definitely side-eye you

You're doing ...well maybe not the Lord's...but some entity's work. Keep it up, boiled or otherwise.
