Olympic villages ran out of free condoms

And a few days ago some of them were getting sold on Vinted for 105 euros...

Yikes! Were those prices for new or used?

'Gently used' expression so beloved by second-hand stores has also just gained a new and intriguing facet.

Ahh, but "gently used" would likely not apply to Olympic athletes: "faster, higher, stronger, together".

Depending on how fast is faster. So many medals are decided by a few tenths of a second, it gotta rub off.

(I know, I know, I'll check myself out).

But "fast" by itself is not dispositive:

(total wear) = (wear rate) X (wear duration)

So even if the wear duration (time of use) is small, the total wear can still be substantial if the wear rate (a function of vigorousness of use) is very high.

This is the best Olympics related thread in the whole forum.

They’re (almost all) young people who are in fantastic physical shape and are in general good looking. I’ve always heard a lot of physical ..interactions happen.

<<Emphasis added>>

Being young may not be a significant factor. You should do a search on an issue that's rampant in nursing homes (see what happens when 65+ yr seniors are housed together and have a lot of free time on their hands).

WADA's on it.
