Set up?

I met the friend of a friend who is single. He is very nice - but not a match.

a) wears an earing on the top of his ear - a big loop
b) DEALBREAKER - is a warehouse manager - that is okay - but he has this side business and he sells incontinence things and has the "bright idea" to sell them to a whole new sports market - guys who like to drink and watch a football game all day so they can pee in a cup discretely and not have to get up to wait in line to use the restroom and miss so much of the game - sorry - that just flipped me out. And I can't imagine hearing him describe that to my family and friends. Just can't go there. I almost fell out of my chair when he said that!!!! OMG!!

It is a shame because he is tall and attractive and very nice.

OMG.
That made me laugh....sorry but that would be a deal breaker for me too. What a gimmick - credit for orginality....um or desperation? YIkes, I wouldnt be able to hear him talk to my family about that either!!!

He got the idea from being at a game - and thought everyone else would think like him and be dying for his product.

I think the idea of collecting your urine is disgusting because then you have bottles of warm urine sitting around the living room.

LOL isysmoon... I was thinking the same thing!!! Foley cath with a leg bag. And off to the game we go!!!!


Yeah, Judy- I would ax him for that as a dealbreaker, too. Just sounds like a potential get-rich-scheme that would only end up wasting money.

This scheme has already been done. Guys have this for hunting or for being stuck in traffic. It's a red flask type thing. So, his get rich scheme has made money, but for someone else already.


TOTALLY GROESS... BUT!!! Has anyone ever been stuck in a severe traffic accident and no where to go? I have and I actually (yes, this is WAYYYY to much TMI, but I have pee'd in my pants) NOW have a cup and lid for that emergency. LOL. It actually came in handy the night I broke up with Nascar, but explaining that would be too long, except he lived in BFE and I couldn't find a place private enough to pee. LOL


Anywayyyyyyy.............. ;)


I hope no one has totally groessed out now!

It is just one of those things I shake my head at - I mean WHO is going to find that sort of thing attractive? As I was telling one of my friends - how freaking difficult can it be to find one guy who is normal and who wants a relationship?

At first when he was explaining this I was in disbelief - but he went on and on about how he took an existing product and found a new market for it. He got the idea at a football game because he missed a great play by standing in line for the bathroom. Maybe this is one of those logical types that is socially inept? I think so!!

I love Soonee's comment - "definitely not" - from Harry Potter - that is HILARIOUS!!
