Tasers are the new Tupperware.

Due to some sketchy incidents at my apartment, my family and friends have been urging me to get some sort of weapon. My dad’s first choice was for me to purchase a gun and take firearm classes. Considering that my very first “C” was from my 7th grade Hunter’s Education class (yep…that’s right, they sent 13 year-olds out into a field with BB guns to learn how to shoot), this does not seem like a wise idea (much like the premise of the class).

Ruling out other options, (ie. knives [won’t go there], hiring a bodyguard, installing a state of the art home security system, learning karate) I have become fixated on purchasing a taser. My desire to purchase a taser has become a frequent point of conversation.


Mitch actually sent me this article a couple of months ago about how taser parties have replaced Tupperware parties.

Taser = Tupperware


Then I got an email from a friend telling me about the new taser/MP3 holster (I know, strange combo….and I feel t
hat I should be slightly concerned that people automatically associate me with this product.).
Taser = Music

Fox News’ even has a recommended song choice: Aerosmith's "Lightning Strikes" and, of course, any number of "Don't Tase Me, Bro!" remixes.


This little pink taser would be my personal pick (btw, I love that this is on a site called “RV Protection Products")…

Taser = Pink

And you gotta love that the leopard print taser was marketed as the taser option for the consumer who wants fashion with a kick!
