It's scary when reality catches up with fiction.

Can't decide if that's better or wrose than a fidget spinner. I guess it would depend if you have kids or not.

I was going to say, I hope nobody relies on these for actual protection but then I realized I was at a security conference so none of these are getting used, guaranteed.

Yeah, that's loving great. Head out to a conference, forget I got a business card with a condom on it, only for my wife to find it in my jacket pocket a month later while angrily demanding to know why I have a condom in my pocket after attending a conference.

Yeah it's just bizarre to see people like @bakkooonn or @fart talking about Serious Business online when all I know them for is the exact opposite. Didn't help that a whole lot of that site is buzzword central and it's called Upguard In short: Thanks Ants posted:For some reason I'm shocked that @fart does Serious Work
