Journal / Trojan

aimee-beth has a friend named phil, and phil brought up a good point about ‘trojan’ brand condoms.
if you think about it, ‘trojan’ is a very odd name for a condom since the original ‘trojan horse’ was something that looked innocent and safe but when let inside burst forth spreading mayhem and chaos.
call me crazy, but that’s kind of diametrically opposed to what you want in a condom, no?
don’t you want a condom that doesn’t burst open and spread mayhem and chaos?
in fact, truth be told i almost couldn’t think of a worse literary/historical name for a condom brand.
let’s think of bad possible condom names, ok?
‘fertility condoms’
‘super leaky condoms’
‘babymaker condoms’
‘burst-n-break condoms’
ok, it’s sunday night.
no. it’s monday night.
monday holidays always make me think that it’s sunday.
common mistake.
for a common person.
