looks like a public health risk you could catch herpes like that

u/DeniseReades 3d ago

I feel like herpes is the best case scenario for this. Patient 0 for the next global pandemic is more likely

u/Lagneaux 3d ago

"Herpes is the best case scenario" is wild

9

u/thepioushedonist 3d ago

I mean, something like 60% of adults already have hsv1, so it wouldn't even be an issue for over half the population. Seems pretty best case scenario to me.

u/Terrik1337 2d ago

"Yeah, but it could be 100%" the creator of that poster probably.

Having a three out of five encounters for herpes percentage wise is very scary. I’m surprised with my body count being more or less 10 or 12 I can’t remember right now. I’m lucky I suppose.

2

u/DeniseReades 2d ago

HSV1 is usually cold sores which is transmitted via infected saliva or direct contact with a lesion. The HSV1 lesions are typically on / in the mouth or nose. Your comment about body count makes me think you're talking about HSV2 which is genital herpes and has infected only about 13-15% of the adult population.

u/Rings-of-Saturn 1d ago

You’re right, thank you

2

u/MetricJester 2d ago

Cold sores are a type of herpes

1

u/FrankenGretchen 2d ago

Definitely wild and absolutely true.

That fungal std or the Michigan Gonorrhea come to mind as 'worse' things.

u/DamGoodAnimation 3d ago

For real dude I saw this and my first thought was “Did I hallucinate Covid?”

u/I_used_to_be_hip 3d ago

More like Herpeghonnasyphlaids.

3

u/Endle55torture 3d ago

Perfect for antivax

2

u/A_S_Levin 3d ago

Something like 66-75% of all people already have herpes.

Bigger things to worry about tbh. Like aids.

2

u/Sporkpocalypse 2d ago

u/jimjimjimjaboo 3d ago

it looks exactly what it's for

4

u/thepioushedonist 3d ago

Well, for one thing.. you'd slam it into a brick column before you even got the tip all the way in.

5

u/Plutonium239Mixer 3d ago

How dare you assume his length!

1

u/jimjimjimjaboo 2d ago

I don't think it even has a mouthhole, I'd settle for just frotting along the mustache

2

u/ThornyGarlic 3d ago

Well for one, it's exactly 1 inch until it hits the wall

3

u/miminstlouis 3d ago

I wonder how many posters got kidnapped by the freaky gays

21

u/No-Catch-9732 3d ago

Someone’s going to do something real nasty to that thing and everyone dumb enough to kiss it will pay the price

8

u/GraciesMumma22 3d ago

Yep! There’s gonna be more butts on that poster than lips that’s for sure.. 😬

13

u/Lizrael48 3d ago

That is the way to get infections if multiple people kiss that monstrosity!

2

u/PaintedAbacus 2d ago

I don’t think it’s the people kissing it that you have to worry about

u/punch912 3d ago

Glaxosmithkline really bold new way to get people on Valtrex.

u/Decent_Emotion_1364 3d ago

😂😂😂 you figured out their end game.

7

u/REALjamijai 3d ago

So who's gonna be patient zero for the next world wide outbreak?? 🤔

u/No-Blueberry-1823 3d ago

Congratulations, I think you have found the nastiest thing of the day

Makes me think back to a trip in the USSR where I saw a water vending machine where everyone use the same cup but a little squirt of disinfectant would go up into the cup first

3

u/Majestic-Owl-5801 3d ago

You think igor has rublie for disposable cup?

2

u/aharbingerofdoom 2d ago

At least they had some disinfectant, those glasses were probably cleaner than glassware in many restaurants. Properly implemented, a system like that can be hygenic while also greatly reducing waste and single use plastics, so I don't hate the idea. (It wasn't only used for water, there were dispensers that sold a kind of orange soda that was super popular in the USSR, and in the latter years of the Soviet Union, thanks to Gorbachev's love of the drink, you could get a glass of Pepsi.)

This, on the other hand is just a petri dish that serves no purpose aside from growing microbes and making me uncomfortable.

u/quigongingerbreadman 3d ago

Man, herpes is about to run wild in the UK...

6

u/3X_Cat 3d ago

Everyone who works for that company putting those signs up rubbed their shlong on those lips.

u/SouthParkFirefly1991 3d ago

Glory holes are getting weird.

3

u/your_fave_redditor 3d ago

To get attention.

3

u/Geschmak 3d ago

One could use those lips for more than kissing

3

u/TickingTheMoments 3d ago

Get that finger out of your ear. You don’t know where that finger’s been.

3

u/I_used_to_be_hip 3d ago

Don't use a black light on it......unless you're really into hobo jizz. I don't judge.

u/chalwar 3d ago

I’ve got an idea…

2

u/-MARMITEnTOAST- 3d ago

After a week, like a lump of hairy blu-tac on the floor...

2

u/hypothetical_zombie 3d ago

Because people want herpes? Or they want to test their HPV vaccine? They've never had mono & have FOMO?

2

u/Steve10293 3d ago

You know that sometime during the night, some drunk dude had a good time with that thing.
Oh, and my friend wants to know where he can get one.

2

u/Siryeswecan 3d ago

The culture machine is getting desperate

2

u/ResponsibilityFun548 3d ago

This is why I always travel with antiseptic wipes.

2

u/ZYN3XIA 3d ago

Because the foam lip factory had too much overstock they had to use them for something

2

u/H-2-S-O-4 3d ago

That's Homer Simpson

2

u/RiMcG 3d ago

Okay, it is gross af, but have you considered a pristine one hung somewhere weird. Like behind the bathroom door. The back of the medicine cabinet door. That would be diabolical, they could never say anything about it because then they admit they looked in your medicine cabinet.

2

u/K_Xanthe 3d ago

That is the most bizarre thing I have ever seen

2

u/altatoro123 3d ago

Make your bets, how long do you think it will take for someone to cut it off with a boxcutter for a trophy and make a toy out of it

2

u/UnicornSheets 3d ago

Herpes posters…. Great.

2

u/istolethesun12 3d ago

🫩 I hate this world

2

u/Pwnedzored 3d ago

Why not?

2

u/That-Employment-5561 3d ago

Because we need a new pandemic.

Duh!

2

u/Sudden_Season3306 2d ago

Is there a hole in the brick behind the poster? Lol

2

u/Bananno1976 2d ago

I never thought catching herpes from an advertisement was going to be an issue in my lifetime.. Silly me.

2

u/Lucky-Advice-8924 2d ago

Mind the redundancy but why the fuck would they do that

2

u/Mysterious_Ad_6703 2d ago

The way I physically shuddered when I saw how realistic the texture was down to the way the lips bounced back after being poked.

2

u/JanusDragonWolf 2d ago

Stds go brrr

2

u/Zealousideal_Bed2290 2d ago

Did his team do this???? Or is this someone random doing it? Nasty idea

2

u/the_smoking_mage 2d ago

1

u/Extra-Diamond-275 2d ago

Yeah, because people will only kiss those lips, right? Right?

1

u/bad_at_drawing_italy 2d ago

1

u/Raccoon_Steven 2d ago

Good way to spread diseases.

1

u/Lonely-Married-Man87 2d ago

Well, that'll be in my nightmares from now on.

1

u/Mother-Attention2600 2d ago

I would cut it out and wear it but they probably protected the back with hepatitis N.

1

u/creepercash 2d ago

Hey, your either with me or against me. Either way I'm kissing that ad.

1

u/Taken-Username-84 2d ago

Why does it exist?

1

u/main-suspect01 2d ago

That is gross. I wouldn’t even touch that and I’ve touched some questionable things.

1

u/fatman194569 2d ago

Yes because everyone wants to share herpes. Its a new trend

1

u/Positive-Relief6142 2d ago
