Talking Where does one buy formaldehyde?

A friend of mine is getting married. As a gag, I wanted to get a jar of formaldeheye and label it "Testicles, one pair" so he'll have a nice place to store them.

If you saw the stuff picked out for their online wedding registration, you'd understand.

I may just use some greenish liquid (antifreeze?) instead, but I thought it would be funny all the same.

Get a jar of pickles, minus the pickles.

Tom

edit: For max effect, you could drop 2 hard boiled eggs in there.

for max-max-gross-out-make-the-wedding -guests-gag effect, give them to the bride, and have her eat one.

Hey Thom, In one of my criminal science classes back in the day when I was concidering going into law inforcement, It was discussed that formaldehyde is used to manufacture very bad drugs..ie Crytal, KJ or as it is also refered to Angle Dust.. Good luck trying to acquire some.

I like the idea of a pickle jar, only with two old walnuts floating around in it!

Paul, Thom can select the type (size) of "donor" animal based on how good a friend the groom is. LOL!

I agree with Jorge above...I think the purchasing of formaldehyde is illegal because it is utilized in drug manfacturing. Plus, who the heck would want a jar of formaldehyde sitting around their house? I'd go for the pickle juice with the eggs. I think you'll get your point across with it.

But then what the heck do I know...I'm female and don't see the humor in this at all...I get it, but I don't think it's funny, and your friend's wife-to-be might not, either, and then you'll become "the friend who isn't welome!" (hint hint)

Make nicey with the bride-to-be and she'll let your friend out to "hang" with you occasionally...piss her off, and he won't ever be allowed out.

Just my 2 cents.

Pam

It takes an Italian Man to make a Woman feel like a Woman... On a recent transatlantic flight, a plane passes through a severe storm. The turbulence is awful, and things go from bad to worse when one wing is struck by lightning. One woman in particular loses it. Screaming, she stands up in the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die," she wails. Then she yells, "Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on earth to be memorable!

Is there ANYONE on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN?" For a moment there is silence. Everyone has forgotten their own peril. They all stared, riveted, at the desperate woman in the front of the plane. Then an Italian man stands up in the rear of the plane. He is gorgeous: tall, well built, with dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He starts to walk slowly up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt.....one button at a time. .......No one moves.

.......He removes his shirt........Muscles ripple across his chest....

She gasps.....He whispers: ...."Iron this, and get me something to eat.."

Seems like it might be striking a little close to home, based on this:

So do you keep your husband's wedding tackle in your purse, or locked in a cabinet at home?

I don't think the bride or the groom would find it funny, and if they don't find it funny, why put a spike in their big day? Weddings are stressful enough without a self appointed court jester.

If you really must exercise your humour save it for the bachelor dinner.

I somewhat agree..

It is the brides day.. All I said to myself all of that day was "don't _uck it up"..

And when anybody said "how do you feel ?".. the reply was "it's the happiest day of my life".. and I have the video to prove it..
