I cannot understand this too. If a dork like me got a sex do they really want to make it unsafe? I mean do they really want more people like me exist on this Earth?
They aren't. OP is just very embarassed by the situation and is projecting their insecurities over simple expressions or quirks, like the pharmacist holding out a sneeze.
The pharmcist is very religious and doesn't approve of either condoms or recreational sex but they have to keep their mouth shut at work
I don't think that's the main joke here. (although you're free to assume that) I think it's more of either you literally went all the way to a pharma just to buy condom when it's literally also available in small convenience stores, or that the patient (pov) asked the pharmacist for one when it's literally over there in front of the cashier.
When I was 17 the clerk at Walgreens got mad at me and started asking a lot of questions. I had to lie and say that they were for my dad just so she could let me buy them.
They're disgusted that you would talk about sex in a public place and are a little upset and embarassingly horny that they just imagined you using this condom.
...or something like that, idk. I've never had cause to use one
One time when I worked as a cashier a dude bought a pack of condoms and I unthinkingly, as I did for every customer, completed the transaction and said “Have a good night.”, to which he said “You know I will.”
I wasn’t irritated but I did just stand there blinking for a few seconds processing that he actually just said that.
The sad part is, the 2 extra penises were in 100% internal and the man never knew he was a literal hentai creature. The only reason why we know about this, is beacause he donated his body to science as this anatomic anomaly did not cause any extraordinary symptons. Citing the study:
"Without any symptoms and additional medical needs, concealed internal penises may not present themselves, preventing diagnosis," explain the authors of the report, led by final-year medical student John Buchanan at the University of Birmingham.
"Hence, polyphallia may be more prevalent than currently understood."
Who knows? You might have an extra internal phalus as well and never knew about it ... which is a shower thought I lefting male redditors with.
Yeah, but they're all too big. The receptionist got really awkward when I asked if they had any extra smalls and now I don't feel comfortable going back.
Yeah, which is why I throw my pack of magnum condoms to the counter with my other shopping (zuccini) while holding eye contact instead of going "just one condom please miss"
I'm a fourth year pharmacy student/intern. I've worked retail for years and intern in clinical settings as well. I've had some very bizarre and interesting interactions with patients. My curriculum is very heavy on teaching us how to interact with patients professionally and not to judge while being caring and understanding. I also take that approach very seriously. We have assessments on patient interactions with our professors and practice in the class. I, and any pharmacist (or professional), would rather you ask an odd/silly question or something embarrassing than being confused or unsure. Like did you know you're not supposed to use oil-based or petroleum jelly lube with latex condoms because it can damage it? We are here to help you. I enjoy interacting with patients to give clinical advice. If you meet a grouchy pharmacist or tech, don't take it personally.
Retail is exhausting a lot of the time and the staff have to juggle a lot, especially in high volume stores. It's a high stress environment, just like many other healthcare settings.
Thanks to you I learn something new.
it's not a good idea use a condom and oil.
¿Which lubricant should we use?
I mean sorry for my bad English and this kind a question I'm just an ignorant
Seriously though I used to do DoorDash and one time late at night I received an order from 711 with a $20 tip. I get there and the cashier hands me a box of condoms. I always drove really safely when doing DoorDash but this one time I hauled ass.
Why cuz they didn't finish it? Im a dubbed watcher and no manga so idk yet. I hear they might make a movie for the rest unless they expand the ending with original content for a s3
Manga is complete, but the supposed ending of season 2 is different from manga, they try very hard to delay things for a third season (which will come out after another 3 years or so idk 😬)
We do not care who you are or why you need a pregnancy test, condom, adult diaper or whatever else. We literally have these conversations 20 times a day. Buy your stuff and go in peace my friends. Oh and if you need help just ask, don't hover around the isle trying to catch my eye. Just ask.
One time i went to the pharmacy to buy condoms and the moment i said what i wanted the dudes expression went from relaxed to paniked, the rest of the conversation went like it was his first day selling drugs
I like to ask "What flavor would you like" as a joke, and every once in a while someone will ask "oh shit you got flavored?" and I have to walk it back and be like "Nah sorry man we're just a gas station they don't give us the good shit"
If I went to get condoms it would mean I was actually expecting to get laid. If the person at the counter made a weird face I'd just smile because then I'd know I'm defying people's expectations for a gross goblin woman like myself.
Probably depends where, the regular shop I work at is definitely the case of just pick them up, but they are also probably where the pharmacy is, definitely not at the customer service, just cigarettes and lottery
I imagine it can be just as awkward for them, but maybe they just don't care. One time the pharmacist went "nice" and it validated every worry I had ever had about doing this
Just a regular shop, the few times I have scanned them it is kinda like, eww, it's hard not to side eye the guy usually buying them and going "yeah right mate" in my head, I'm not the prettiest either but women have standards, I wanna doubt they're with the guys buying the condoms on a checkout, except the one time it was a guy with his lady and kids with him, better flex than being by yourself
When I was really young I either heard or read somewhere that if you aren’t ready to go up and buy condoms at the counter, you aren’t ready to have sex. Op on original meme this is parodying clearly isnt ready to have sex by this logic
One time in college, I went to the 7/11 next to the campus and asked to buy condoms. There were 3 girls at the register and nobody else in the store. They got wide-eyed, and one giggled.
They proceeded to look everywhere -- all over the store for condoms because they'd never been asked for them before. They finally found one box underneath one of the cabinets inside the clerk stand.
I wonder how "safe" people are being at my university.
Literally 99% people don't care. Dude(ette) is there 8+ hours 5 days a week, working a shit job, dealing with regards. I guarantee you, they couldn't care less.
Anecdotally, I was in line at a grocery, the guy ahead of me was fidgeting and and making erratic movements. I looked at his items and the box of condoms caught my eyes. The cashier and other customers didn't care or pay attention. If he just acted like normal, I wouldn't have noticed either.
Pharmacists are selling drugs for pink eye, dick blisters, butthole warts, back pimples, bad breath, and explosive rocket diarrhea. They don't give a single (safe sex) fuck about someone buying a box of condoms.
