.... in Antarctica.

Hot. Or cold. I don't know.

What a story that must be eh? "So I was totally nailing this chick in Antarctica right...."

didn't we this scenc in Stanley Kubrick's "The Thingie?"

Where are there stores in Antarctica to buy condoms? Are they run by Penguins? Also, it's funny how in the States the government preaches abstinence for youngsters but ships 16,500 condoms to scientist in the South Pole.

P.S.:Shrinkage [Wink]

45 condoms & change per day? That MIGHT JUST tide me over. Assuming there were no breakages or other problems. Maybe.

Are they name brand, or just generic? [Smile]

I wonder what the ratio of men to women is within the population down there...
 
Posted by Sean (Member # 2010) on :
 
Well, you run into the smurf paradox.

A colony of 100 small bule people.
99 males...
1 female...

A lot of little smurf chidren...

Shik, check your math. There are 125 people on the base. 16,500 ÷ 125 equals an allotment of 128 condoms per person. Assuming that a person spread out their allotment over the entire year (the article quoted "a year's supply") then that means they'd use one every 2.8 days.

Of course, the male-to-female ratio does alter the picture somewhat, since technically, TWO people are using a condom at once. [Wink]

I saw a documentary on that base once. They talked about how the flimsy walls between cubicles where people sleep mean there isn't really any privacy but people fuck anyway cuz you're stuck inside for 8 months.

No, I just meant for me.

I'd assume it must be pretty boring down there considering the lack of entertainment when they're done with all there scientist stuff and whatnot.

They might have an Xbox. And cards. But skrewing might pass the time well. But thats just my own experience [Wink]
 
Posted by Sean (Member # 2010) on :
 
I like to read when I'm bored. And it is a huge complex, so I'd guess they have some form of entertainment other than screwing eachother. Perhaps they have gotten a shit load of movies in the shipment too. I doubt much of that comes their way often.

I have some good friends who are now married, but who actually met at McMurdo. (and the winner for best location in a "How We Met Story" goes to...) Anyway they've shown me some slideshows and videos they made down there. They... well there's not a lot to do for fun. Also with the drinking.
 
Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
 
Even if there was tons to do for fun, I maintain that being locked inside with the same group of people for a long period of time, knowing you couldn't survive outside, the darkness, being cut off from humanity...I think the carnal instincts would become quite aggressive. Sort of an act of life in the midst of death. Kind of. A bit.

Go back to your room and think about what you've just said young man.
 
Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
 
It's a studio...I'm already in my room B)
 
Posted by Sean (Member # 2010) on :
 
Wait, so you're saying that because it is cold, the researchers will get all lonely and primitave and fuck?


Chances are they have Satellite TV and 'Net access, probably also by satallite. And you know, stuff to research.
 
Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
 
No...that's really not what I'm saying. *sigh* Never mind.

The House episode covering scientists in Antarctica is now required viewing.
 
Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
 
Y'see that's what makes me think that they've definately tried having sex in space. Especially on those long ISS missions. If not they'll definately give it a go on the way to Mars.
 
Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
 
I would've thought that anyway. Sex in space? Chance of a lifetime. "Look, I'm a woman, you're a man, we're in outer-fucking-space."
 
Posted by Sean (Member # 2010) on :
 
Wouldn't it be a bit hard to...uh...gain momentum for thrusts and all? You would need to be strapped in, and have something to give "him" the leverage to thrust, and something for "her" to be supported by, so that the momentum from his thrust doesn't just push her off of him.

I remember the scene of Bond and a girl having sex in " Moonraker". That was funny, with the sheet hanging off of them at a 90 degree angle and all.
 
Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
 
I think the 'strapped in' would take care of all the leverage issues. But, you know, there's no need for violent thrusting movements that simply holding on can't counteract B) Be gentle...
 
Posted by The Ginger Beacon (Member # 1585) on :
 
Presumably, some sort of crash helmet would be required.
 
Posted by Josh (Member # 1884) on :
 
That place sounds more like a Roman orgy than at science outpost. Who's up for ice poon?

This makes me wonder what all those scientist were doing on those remote outposts on TNG.
 
Posted by Daniel Butler (Member # 1689) on :
 
Well, serious question now, what else could you do? I mean besides entertain yourself (in whatever manner you choose). I.E., what the fuck do they *do* all winter down there? (Besides study the Ancient outpost of course ;P) I mean, they can't go outside, so they can't be drilling ice cores or whatever. Are they...constantly checking the thermometer and writing it down in a log?

For that matter what do they do during the summer? Ice core samples is about all I can even think of. I've heard Antarctica is a protected international place for its scientific value, but it's only just occurred to me to wonder what scientific value a giant chunk of ice and rock could possibly have. (Again, beyond those neat-o core samples what with the showing of the oxygen values a million years ago and so on and so forth).

And penguins.
 
Posted by Sean (Member # 2010) on :
 
They dont have to buy Penguin Pr0n now..

They get the live show. [Wink]

*snort* Them again (I know, i know, MY fault for coining them...)

You know, you'll make light of all those scientologists getting thier freak on in the dark?

But how many chicks got knocked up on thier 1st deployment on the Lincoln in, what? '96? '97? It's not like they don't know they won't fuck like rabbits down there...

Can't they get discliplined for breaking some sort of frat policy...or all of them?
