What is this? (Found in abandoned hospital UK)

We found this in an abandoned hospital. Its rounded at the end, which I presume is like a dildo and its wearing a condom. But it has a spray attachment at the top. It's quite long and was next to an Aways sanitary towel. What is it?

Any reason not to think it's been dual-purposed?

People will stuff all manner of unnormal things where they don't belong. There's an irony in putting a condom on it to make it sanitary.

 

Yes maybe a lubricant and a hole filler of some sort. That's the most likely.

 

That's what I was thinking. The question is: Is the condom there to keep contamination out or in?

 

It's gross.

 

If it was rectangular in cross section instead of round I would suggest it was a biopsy probe for sampling prostate tissue for cancer. Personal preoccupation.........

 

What do you mean probe? It's a spray bottle with a round bottom.

 

objet trouve?

 

Funniest looking 'spray bottle' I have ever seen, and I have seen many more "spray bottles" than most people have. The comment "spray attachment on the top" is very much open to interpretation.

Among all the spray bottles you've seen in your richly spray-bottle-filled life, you haven't encountered these before?

It's just a spray canister, probably of soap or disinfectant, designed to sit in a fixed holder - that someone used to demonstrate how to put on a condom. Because they don't keep produce in most consulting rooms or outpatient cubicles.

 

Of course! :slaps forehead: I could not, for the life of me, figure out why a spray bottle would be designed with a round bottom, except so that it can't be set down on a surface properly. Which seemed kind of sadistic.

But in fact, the reason you design something like this is so that the only place it can be set down is ... back in its holder.

I think it more apparent that the device was ... put to use ...

 

All kinds of objects have been removed, in all kinds of emergency rooms, from all kinds of human orifices. But then it should have been placed in a sealed specimen container or disposed-of in a hygienic receptacle. (The funniest one I've seen was an electric dildo that had shorted out and couldn't be turned off and kept vibrating until its battery died. The most tragic was a burst cocaine balloon.)


I don't know in what part of the hospital this object was found, but cannot bring myself to imagine anyone actually using it in a waiting room, surgery or even supply closet of a hospital.

 

I guess I am going under an assumption. That is: that the utility of this device occurred some time after the hospital closed its doors. I am equating the relative disarray in which it was found with the hospital's possible second life as a flop house.

 

Ah, that mean anything can be found there. Don't touch it with bare hands!!
