Generally speaking, I don't pop balloons on purpose. I like having them around, so I try to keep them for as long as possible.
The shape and feel of the balloons are more important to me. Helium is alright but normal air is better.
Why buy a $2000+ sex doll when you can get a 50 count bag of 16 inch Qualatex balloons for well under $20?
That's 50 high quality sex toys for less than 1 percent the cost of one sex toy.
I don't get it.
Update: Discovered one kinda significant flaw with these balloons. They don't seem to last quite as long as other balloons once blown up. It hasn't even been a month yet, and some of them have already spontaneously popped due to oxidation (and the ones that haven't popped yet are already heavily oxidized.). The other balloons I've had tended to last at least 2-3 months once blown up and they didn't oxidize nearly as fast.
