So, a bit of irony to report. I handed this post over to my wife to read. Not only was there some juvenile and adult humor mixed in, but the whole time she was reading she was wondering why the Toy Story theme, "You've Got A Friend In Me" was playing in her earpiece! 🤣🤣🤣 This stuff can't be made up. This is MY life; almost daily! Lol! I love my life!

There are TOO many rabbit holes that could be gone down with this. And we all know the saying about the breeding habits of rabbits.

HOWEVER, the whoopee wand COULD be a great gift that will bring great pleasure to the household OR be incredibly insulting to the woman.

This brings to mind the book I recently finished "Comfort Crisis". I'm all for anything that encourages someone to exercise in any manner. But there is value also to getting away from all the distractions and soaking in nature (while getting exercise and exposure to the elements at the same time).

Perifit might be a different case, in this situation a game might be a case where high tech actually delivers benefit!

Of course, IT IS used with a mobile device so you technically could use it outside. Like the yoga groups in the park. 🤣

Yes, it appears to be portable and able to be used anywhere.

Perhaps straying off topic (or back on topic), a concern is that people feel like their phone absolutely must be connected (receive a signal) everywhere. People have become uncomfortable with "calm silence". The Perifit does use Bluetooth so technically you wouldn't need a cell signal so *IF* you could find a place on Earth that still isn't blanketed with cell towers you could still get your kegel exercise in!

In which case, it may be perfect for me because the only reason I finally got a mobile phone is because it'll work with my wifi. No cell coverage where I am!

It may also be perfect for me for other more obvious reasons, as well, but I'm not so sure I could stop laughing long enough to try. And, well... laughing doesn't help the situation this is trying to help.

Now I'm laughing! {sigh} It would be nice to be young again (with all experience retained).
