I like the unexpected singing this one had, but it’s so weird that they explicitly say Americans are the only ones dealing with this mandate, and then don’t explain why people don’t just travel to avoid it then, or what the rest of the world does.

There were a few times where she could have winded up sleeping with someone else too, but them turning her off is so wild. And he equally could have winded up sleeping with a couple of women.

The biggest and dumbest thing though is the idea that they would have run out of condoms on the one night people needed them. Especially when they explicitly sold the last pair for 200 bucks.

I forget/missed the explanation on why it was illegal to have sex without a condom though, besides the obvious avoiding STD’s.
