Seems that in the latter part of the cold war Russia was allowed some limited trade with the U.S. Some nameless institution ordered 50,000 condoms from an American plant (located in Texas, I like to think). The order specified that the condoms were to be 11 inches long. The Americans scratched their heads, called the Russians to verify the measurement, and were rudely told that the order was correct, all of the condoms should be 11 inches long.

So the Americans proceeded to fill the order and shipped the Russians 50,000 11-inch condoms-- in boxes labeled "medium."

Interesting and definately a complete screwup. There hath be no way that 50,000 men in Russia can be 11 inches.

Are there ven 50,000 men in Russia?
lol
Maybe it was for the women too...they ARE pretty manly...

Sounds like another metric system screw-up. Should have probably been 11 centimeters Chris. lol

That was my thought. Won't they get a big surprise when they open all those cases of condoms:) What do you do with 50,000 11inch long condoms?

[chrsmoos.livejournal.com]

er, read it wrong, wonder what they did with them all.:)

[camper4lyfe.livejournal.com]

Fucking metric system (even though it does make more sense!)

Balloon animals?

Um, Chris...it was a joke...I think it was meant by the Russians to be an intimidation thing. That's why the US company labeled them 'medium'.

I give ALL my measurements in metric...even my IQ...which as you know in metric is my KS.(know shit).

Except my weight which I give in "stone" but leave off the word "stone"....

My crayons are NOT sanitary today and they taste funny...not at all like what the labels promise!!!! I can FEEL my KS slipping into DKS...

Sounds like there might be some lead in them too
