Bandaid rule #47
47. If you wear bandaids at the gym, because you have a very long run on the dreadmill, make sure you take them off immediately after undressing. Otherwise, if you have to walk the entire length of the locker room to the shower, you will pass 100 people who will give you wierd smirky looks. The good news is that when you finally get in the shower, realize you have bandaids on your nipples still, you can stay there for 45 minutes until all the other smirking by members have gone home. Hopefully they won’t blog about you.

Why not do the 5 minutes of sandpaper every night like I do to keep them tough?

Get fancy disney bandaids with pics of mickey and the gang! I’m happy I’m a girl.

So which is better? Bandaids (Nip Guards in my case), or the white shirt with two bloody stains dripping down the front? Cause that’s real attractive too.

bah! LMAO…oh my…that brings a tear to my eye…funny stuff….next time just let them bleed and what past them with blood trickling down your chest see what kind of faces they make then! hold on here…so you saunter completely naked through the locker room? With all your naughty bits hanging out? Weirdo THAT’S why they were looking at your funny! “Hey Nike Brother number 1, check out the naked guy!”
Nike bro #1 “Dude…he’s smokin hot! Check out the pasties! wooooowie!”

Just tell them that you are real modest.
February 9th, 2006 11:16
okay - you totally set yourself up, I’m off to blog about your nipples now. JK - hope you had enough hot water!
February 9th, 2006 11:17
so I came across your blog from this other person that wrote about the man-wearing-Band-Aid Bra.
funny stuff.

I guess this will make it apparent that I do not work out, but why in the hell do you wear bandaids on your nipples?!?
February 9th, 2006 12:05
Wonder what the YMCA would say to this particular nipple issue. You should stand your ground and wear those band aids “anytime, anywhere.”

I’m at school but I’m basically crying in the computer lab from this entry. OH MY GOD. I look like an idiot smiling at the computer screen-but still probably not as silly as you looked…

Maybe I could sell you some “nipple nibbler” from my new side business, it doubles as a lip balm! BTW, the cake recipe was a big hit with my friends at work, I will be using it for the cake I enter on Sat. Thanks, again!
February 9th, 2006 13:15
Thanks for the mid-day laugh! I’m sure at least 1 of the 100 people knew what was going on.
So how was the very long run on the dreadmill?
February 9th, 2006 13:34
Clear nail polish! Liquid Bandaid works too! Invisable and you can look like a tough man too!
February 9th, 2006 13:38
Very funny! I definitely think you should get the kiddie bandaids. Think of all the super cool designs you can choose from: Spiderman, Little Mermaid, Spongebob…
February 9th, 2006 14:21
You’re *sure* they were staring at the bandaids? Perhaps what you thought were smirks was actually envy and admiration.
February 9th, 2006 15:58
You know Jon, I don’t stop by *here* for a week - and this is the post I’m treated to? OMG I’m crying laughing.
February 9th, 2006 16:20
I haven’t laughed that loudly in a long time–hysterical!!!!!!
February 9th, 2006 19:16
Umm we’re they “Scooby Do” bandaids or “spiderman”…lol…lol…lol.
February 9th, 2006 19:24
Does the ripping of the band-aids of your manly nipples cause you to yelp in agony? If that’s the case, the shower treatment ain’t a bad idea! Besides, ya might as well march through the locker room like it ain’t nobody’s business…start a new nipple trend like the NFL guys with the breathe-right nasal strips! ;-)
February 9th, 2006 20:23
i’m laughing too hard to be able to think of anything clever to say…=)
February 9th, 2006 21:01
Such a short post, yet I was laughing my a$$ off while I read it!
February 9th, 2006 21:19
you mean you don’t use duct tape?
February 9th, 2006 21:43
what a riot!!
do you really need bandaids for your training runs? i always used bodyglide pretty liberally and it seemed to work. (though for the marathon i got nervous and used some sort of homemade bandaid concoction.)
February 9th, 2006 22:03
Next time just tell them your wife is into some really kinky stuff and, well, you just need to keep the nips covered. They’ll be envious, not smirking, with that info.
February 10th, 2006 02:18
but do you really need an excuse for a forty five minute shower? I don’t.
February 10th, 2006 20:04
I feel for you. That was really funny!
February 12th, 2006 09:18
so funny- i love that you actually blogged about it!
February 12th, 2006 09:27
Oh, that’s hilarious. I’m sure so many of them have no idea why you’d ever wear B_A’s on the nips.
February 17th, 2006 21:17
LOL - I’ll keep that in mind :)
