Positive pregnancy tests are being sold online so people can prank their friends, family and loved ones if they dare.

The products, which are adveritised as 'used' on eBay, are selling at £4.99.

The tests are being sold at £4.99 and are intended as a joke, with sellers warning buyers not to "give anyone a heart attack"

No matter how you look at it, that's cruel. :disapp: :fum:

If the husband didn't want a baby, he'd be upset.

If the husband did want a baby, he'd be disappointed.

Proper cruelty would be for the husband to get hold of a positive test strip and to leave it in their car for his wife to find............ :evil: :evil:

Almost as funny as selling condoms with holes in them.
Many years ago the School Bus Conductor regularly sold "pinpricked" foils to the unsuspecting
passengers. :sweating:

In those days "underage children", who wished to "experiment" could not purchase condoms anywhere.
Adults visiting a Barbershop sold them, and on paying for a Haircut, would ask, "Anything for the weekend Sir?" :snigger:

I'm guessing that is where the saying "he was a bit of a prick" came from ... :whistler:

Cool ? At the time I used to think, "Why does he KEEP asking me that stupid question, there's nothing here except combs & scissors".

I don't know when it started, but it was still asked in the 1960's.

Alan might know :wink:

Hmmmm, maybe not, but a possible alternative use.

Some kids tested the condoms first - by inflating them, then "rolling back up" whilst hoping She didn't change her mind :D

I know so much, that my brain is quite full.

To remember something I have to sacrifice an old memory - a bit like the loop storage on a car camera.

My brain at some point decided that I had a choice - remember my wife's name and birth date etc - or remember what French letters were like and the barber asking such questions.

It was a no-brainer really............. :whistler:

French letters

That reminds me of an incident many years ago when i was working and we received a letter from a solicitor in France writting to tell of his clients move to France.

This poor young junior, girl by the way and must have been no more than 17, shouted out across the office to her friend,
"Bet you can't guess what i got in the post today?"

Her friend shout back "what?"

She shouts "a french letter"

Well the office just fell about and the poor girl, well lets just say she never really got over it...

So, tell us all about the French letters and the barber, Alan.  :D

I worry that the 'joke' test could be used to manipulate some poor bloke. Once the lady has what she wants, she could then lose the 'baby'.

I don't see anything good coming from this......

Bang on, as usual, Alan :D
