On one hand, changing the distribution to condoms made of a more environment-friendly material is of course good. On the other hand, using the term 'single-use condoms' is frightening. Does he mean they're now gonna hand out condoms you're supposed to wash out or something and use again? The fuck. Literally.

Hahaha Although the comic emphasis, these face-to-face coverage are journalistically important. So I think at this point, they're awesome Edited May 7, 2019 by hukbrazil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I think at this point, they're awesome I think they are too, but they literally always rub it in everyone's face. Every single time they are on location, they (or one or two specific editors) somehow forcefully mention they are there. Usually without even mentioning where it is (that's just in some tiny line somewhere), the emphasis has to be on "we are here!!". I know it's just a detail, but it's been annoying me ever since they started with it (they haven't always done so) If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Still, such articles are often quite short and/or poorly written. I would definitely not describe them as awesome. For one thing their interface is quite bad. intoronto 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
