Has anyone...
...ever put their genitals (I'm thinking mainly men here, but I don't want to exclude ladies from the discussion altogether) in a Dyson Airblade? I'm thinking it might be quite nice, but I don't know of any where I could lock the door first. I don't really want anyone to walk in on me at work doing that. The height we have them mounted on the wall here at work, and I guess just the overall design, just screams at me to put my balls in.

Re: Has anyone...
Before I googled to check, I thought you were talking about the Dyson 'Air Multiplier' fans, which I adore because of how they try and sell them as something other than "y'know, this is a pretty cool fan right?". Their adverts talk about how they have 'no buffeting', as if for years we've all been complaining about our regular fans because they 'chop the air up'.
As for your question, no idea, but could you get a wingman to lean on the door for you whilst you try it out? Or is that too much like the start of a gay porno?

To add to Jon's question...........have you ever caught your bollocks in a rat trap (also my favourite marching band song btw.)

Try the disabled toilets in a Marks and Spencer. They've got airblades in them and its own private locking door*. Make sure you don't electrocute yourself in any current passing up your jizz tho.

They've also got them in the toilets at the Houses of Parliament - not sure if you could lock the doors, but you've got an anecdote for life if you take the risk and don't get caught. Although I suppose it's an even better anecdote if you get caught and subsequently arrested for it.

Re: Has anyone...
Read this yesterday just before the gym and normally I would think "Jon Corby you've got a sick mind" but instead I thought "Jon Corby you've got a sick mind, but that actually sounds quite fun!" On this particular gym visit the changing rooms were pretty dead and the toilets are something of a secluded labyrinth with one Airblade ideally situated round a corner. Curiosity got the better of me and after a quick check to see no one was about I whipped out my danglers and subjected them to an almighty breeze. The result? Meh. I was a bit underwhelmed. The breeze was hard but not nearly as tickly, choppy or stimulating on my nethers as I'd anticipated, although on the plus side I'd just come out of the showers and now my drying time had been significantly reduced.
Review:
Adventurism: 7/10
Willy whipping factor: 3/10
Worth the effort? With an overall 10/20 I'd say yes but I won't be bothering again in a hurry in case I get discovered and branded a bit of a sexual weirdo
Would I buy one? No. I imagine this would be a tad expensive to recreate at home for the relatively minimal thrill.

Just wondered which way on you did it? Sideways or as expected?

I don't think it's annoying at all if you're the one that's made the joke and people are LOLing at it. Someone can make a joke, everyone laughs to themselves at it but doesn't comment so the person who made the joke thinks it's not really worked. But yeah it can be annoying if a thread is full of LOLs for someone else's joke.

Re: Has anyone...
Is it a real Airblade? In the main ladies' toilets in M&S in Worcester, it's a fake one (Mitsubishi or something) which doesn't seem to have the same force as a real Airblade - so I suspect the 'Willy whipping factor' may be even lower. That said, I think Airblades are pretty rubbish at drying hands - my favourites are Xcelerators.Lesley Hines wrote:Try the disabled toilets in a Marks and Spencer.

Re: Has anyone...
@Lesley: As expected! The hair dryer thing sounds promising as I'd have more degrees of freedom and it'd be easier to gather momentum. Could be my next pursuit of misadventure, although I don't own a hair dryer and it might not go down well using my girlfriend's! If I'm resorting to using a hairdryer at hers to get my kicks I'm probably doing something wrong.
@Karen: Are you suggesting I completely filled the hand-slot thus reducing movement, or (more likely) that I don't hang low enough to activate the dryer!

Clearly this issue can only be resolved by the application of full scientific rigour to appropriate empirical evidence. Dinos, post some photographs of your genitals in proximity to an appropriate dimensional reference, e.g. a tape measure.

Best way to get over one woman's to get over another one, eh? Funnily enough when someone's bereaved it's quite common to get into another relationship quickly; I read an article that suggested it's because they're used to being in a loving relationship.
Srsly tho, when juggling nads and hand dryer please, please try not get hung up on anything. I can just imagine the enquiry. "Well, I post on this forum..."

Short, yes. Inane question (even by your standards), yes. But at least it's spelt correctly and properly punctuated for a change (even if not entirely grammatically correct, but hey, you can't expect miracles overnight). It seems that complaining about things that annoy me really does work. I must do it more often.Marc Meakin wrote:

Liam,
You might have to elaborate on where I went wrong with my grammar as I only got a grade 'C' O level but otherwisw fair point.
I must admit to getting lazy with my punctuation when using my rather tiny phone to log on to this website
(as is my inability to edit the quote facility) but surely if you understand what I am saying, then I cant see the problem.
Are you this intolerent of regional accents and speech impediments?

Re: Has anyone...
Thanks to this thread, yesterday I noticed that the Dyson Airblade in the Tate St Ives is at a very particular height, though I suspect had I tried it for size and been seen, even there I would have struggled to pass off the ensemble (the Airblade and me) as an art installation (though I did once see an 'art' video there of two naked wrestlers in black and white, including a dangly-from-underneath shot). I dangled my hands in, as they were wet.
Re: Has anyone...
I actually think they're pretty good; when we had our first ones here though they came with a little board explaining how to use them (put your hands all the way in and draw them upwards steadily for 10 seconds) which was rubbish as that's quite awkward to do, and didn't result in dry hands. They've changed the instructions on them now to basically just say "move your hands up and down" and none of the 10 seconds thing.Karen Pearson wrote:That said, I think Airblades are pretty rubbish at drying hands - my favourites are Xcelerators.

Re: Has anyone...
Pretty much agree with you. Xcelerators are so loud, but they are just miles and miles better than your bog standard pub hand-drier. Unless there's an Xcelerator, Airblade or some other equivalent I just wipe my hands on my trousers and be done with it.Jon Corby wrote:I actually think they're pretty good; when we had our first ones here though they came with a little board explaining how to use them (put your hands all the way in and draw them upwards steadily for 10 seconds) which was rubbish as that's quite awkward to do, and didn't result in dry hands.

Re: Has anyone...
I have since discovered that it's spelt 'Xlerator'. Nice that everyone copied my spelling though.
Back to the Airblade though. It is supposed, according to an interview I saw with James Dyson, to work the way Jon describes - (put your hands all the way in and draw them upwards steadily for 10 seconds). Rather than heating the water on your hands to make it evaporate, it's supposed to act a bit like an air squeegee and scrape the water off your hands. If you are moving them up and down, surely that makes this process more difficult (although that's exactly what I do when I have to use one). And I never seem to get my finger tips dry with them!
Jono - EEUURRGHHH! There are probably more germs on your jeans than on your willy (assuming that you shower properly on a daily basis and don't wee on your hands)!
