The Bite:
Yes, yes, yes! Everyone knows to turn used condoms inside-out for another go, but with a quick rinse, you can save additional latex and cash by using condoms three times before chucking 'em, instead of just two. Recycling just got 33% sexier.
The Benefits: 
  • Making cents while making love. Think of all the pennies you coulda saved if you'd adopted this tip during your slutty phase in college.
  • Saving the planet, one love glove at a time. According to science, if we don't start reusing condoms more frequently, we'll drive the wooly mammoth to extinction.
  • Pre-lubrication. Reusing saves lube too.
Personally Speaking: 
Condoms can tear during rinsing even if you're careful, so be gentle. That said, we've been doing this for years, and it's resulted in only three unexpected pregnancies.
Wanna Try: 

Cocktail Fact

On April Fool's Day 2000, a paper reported that FL researchers had developed Viagra for hamsters, writing that guinea pigs often wonder, "I haven't had sex for months. Am I so unattractive?"

Bang For The Bite

If 10,000 Biters reuse a condom just once more next time they do the dirty, we'll save a collective $9.

Are you aware of just how DANGEROUS this thought process can be? Condoms are used not just for birth control, but also for control of sexually transmitted diseases. Re-use of a condom, especially by turning it "inside out", would expose the user or the receiver to potential STDs. Also, a condom is no longer as effective after it has been used once-think of a balloon after it has been inflated and deflated just once, as well as having been used abrasively, as a condom is. Re-use of a condom is a ridiculous thought concept. Try abstinence. It costs nothing, won't cause pregnancy, won't cause STDs, and isn't dangerous. If you are worried about the environment, use an environmentally friendly method of birth control. If you cannot afford condoms, you CANNOT afford the risk of a faulty condom that you have re-used. Three unwanted pregnancies is a big deal if you are one of those three unwanted children.

This is one of the funniest April Fool's jokes that I've ever read! On a realistic note - I have a friend that used to flush the used condoms...until the sewer pipe had to be cleaned out..... Keep up the great tips and good humor!

Condoms are cheap enoigh so there is no way you should run a risk of reusing them.Use them but one time and discard. By the way my experience is there is no problem flushing rubbers down the toilet as I feel this is the neatest way to dispose and works ithout fail.
