          Surprisingly enough, that’s not actually true. It’s rare, but if a woman has sex with two men right after the other, it’s been known for her to have “twins” – one from each man. Weird, huh? But either way, just because she’s “late” doesn’t mean she’s pregnant, but her seeming to freak out about it implies she hasn’t been using protection, so in case she’s not pregnant, she could use the condoms.

          Most schools tend to have room checks in the dorms, what college did you go to that you were spared?

          March 4, 2011 at 8:17 am | #

          While room inspections are required by all dormitories everywhere (with some exceptions), mostly they are looking for safety/health code violations (like candles or violent weapons), or occasionally are there on a tip off that someone has drugs (or alcohol if it’s an alcohol-free dorm). Also, periodically the fire marshal has to inspect the place -it’s the law. Not to mention the maintenance workers who mess with the air conditioner/heater and make sure the fire alarms are working. However, none of these people would be bothered by the condoms, after all they inspect college dorms, they are used to it. College’s can’t really keep you from having sex (except maybe for some religious institutions, I don’t know), though they may have a policy about overnight guests. I mean, why do you thing they have Roz handing out condoms in the first place? And before you say “she works for planned parenthood, not the dorm” remember that anything like that would have to be approved by the dorm, or else they would tell her to stop/get out.

    She’s just making sure that Billie won’t be late again. Still, I never could use a “free sample condom;” I’d be too worried some company was trying to get rid of their defective stock. Besides, not like you can take it back for a refund if it doesn’t work…

      I don’t believe Planned Parenthood is known for giving away defective condoms.

      Then again, I haven’t listened to a nutbar conservative politician today, so they may be pushing that lie now as well.

          At all of the Planned Parenthoods I’ve been to, the condoms have been name brands like Durex and Trojan. I imagine they get pretty good bulk discounts, especially because they’re a non-profit. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if condom companies gave them some sort of preferred-customer deal and the occasional giveaway – after all, what better way for condom companies to advertise?

      • Seraph
        Seraph
        March 3, 2011 at 8:56 am | #

        They’re not, and I doubt there are many manufacturers out there that would use defective products for what’s essentially a promotional giveaway. Never mind the possibility of lawsuits or catching hell from the FDA if anyone ever found out.

          Also, how would they know they were defective stock anyway? If they accidently went through a load with some scissors, they’re hardly going to put them in the wrappers and box them up, are they?

          Unlikely. If “they” are the condom manufacturers, they’ve already their product in every pharmacy in America. They don’t need to pay salespeople – and even if they did, how would they gain from having those people give the things away?

          If “they” is Planned Parenthood, they don’t have that kind of money. They need volunteers and donations as it is.

          People like Roz and Steven’s “friend” are volunteers – like Christian kids going out to spread the Word. Roz and Hugging Girl are simply zealots.

        It’s the equivalent of pushy evangelism. Someone thinks something is for your own good, so they try to force it on you. Condoms may be more useful than Chick Tracts, but you still shouldn’t be required to take them.

        Besides, this happened in high school – did the girl know how Steven’s parents would react if they found those condoms?

          If the condom wasn’t going to be a catalyst for parents freaking out, they’d have found some other excuse. That type of parent always finds some other excuse.

          You may as well complain about restaurants that give mints out with the cheque. No one that leaves you a condom or a Chick tract or an after dinner mint forces you to use it.

            The difference being you aren’t obligated to take the mint. It’s there if you want it. Stuffing condoms into a person’s backpack isn’t leaving a mint with the cheque, it’s ramming the mint into the person’s mouth.

            You aren’t obligated to take the tract or the condom, even if they are left in your possession. To compare this to having a mint rammed into your mouth is dishonest, to put it mildly.

            I’ll make it clearer.

            When someone left cigarettes in my backpack, for reasons I don’t know, I threw them out.

            When someone put a cigarette in my mouth while I was sleeping at an airport, I woke up chewing on the thing and couldn’t get the taste out of my mouth for a good while.

            Show some perspective, people.

    You’d think Roz singing loudly would have woken up Billie. Maybe it did. That’s be a hell of a wake-up call.

    Oh that’s terribly terribly wrong. =^-^=

    Isn’t that like closing the barn door after the horse escaped?

    (And isn’t pretty much the only person who’s been with Billy at night… Sal?)

    Right — Roz is busting her butt to get the word and vital supplies out, and Billie, exclaiming to the world she’s tardy to get to her class period, gives the impression she’s late to start her period. No WONDER Roz is throwing objects.

    Moral of the story: Get more sleep. You won’t be so hasty in jumping to conclusions.

    Is it mean of me to think: “She needs them much more than you know, Roz…”?

    I mean, she was all over Tony buying her alcohol and stuff and wouldn’t have minded sleeping with him…

    My mind must go to weird places. I had this vision that Roz threw her entire stock into that room because her voluneteer work is actually some sort of community service sentence that required her to wear “that stupid hat” and shout “those stupid slogans” until she was able to finally give away her stock to people that needed them.

    Then all of a sudden, she’s handed this wonderful excuse to unload everything, even if it wouldn’t make any sense even if it wasn’t based on a wacky misunderstanding.

    Then part of me wonders if Roz’s overreaction might be due in part to having been where she thinks Billie is now. It wouldn’t be the first time I’ve seen a pregnancy scare trigger activism (biblical or prophylactic).

    Right, right, Let Mr. Willis tell his story. I’m almost certainly reading too much into this that isn’t there.

    I’m sure Roz is just tossing out her supply so it looks like she passed them all out. I’m sure Ruth will find them and be even bongoier to Billie. I’m sure I’m getting sick of this relationship between Ruth and Billie. Feels completely Scrubs, J.D./Janitor around the time it got a little old just before Janitor was allowed to be a real character.
