"Netflix & Chill" Condoms Hit The Market

“Netflix & Chill” Condoms Hit The Market

Fire up your Netflix subscription, put your favorite alcoholic beverage on ice, and invite bae over…because all the cuffing season essentials have arrived. Two college kids have decided to capitalize on the overly-memed Netflix & Chill phenomenon and have created a brand of condoms specifically designated for the occasion. Via Digital Trends:

Lovers of the well-known phrase “Netflix and chill” (aka “watch Netflix and hook up”) may have a new favorite contraceptive device. In honor of the subtle invitation, Yousef Okasheh, a recent graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, teamed up with a friend to sell “the definitive Netflix and Chill Condom.”

“I saw a couple memes have been floating around, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I think it would be hilarious to quickly sell [condoms],’” Okasheh recently told Fusion. He enlisted the help of a friend who studies design at UT Austin, and they quickly came up with their product and launched a website yesterday. Currently, the self-proclaimed “poor college students” are selling three-packs for $12.

“These make a great present to give your partner for any NF and chill event,” says the product description. “They also make great presents for anyone, on nearly any occasion… just as long as you want to have sex with them.” It’s important to note, as the website does, however, that neither a Netflix subscription or sexual partner is included with purchase. Those, you’ll have to come up with on your own.

Hey, if it takes that little meme-ified joke to get a condom into a situation where there was none, then more power to them. Although we’re sure regular condoms will get the job done just as well…
