Oh no, here we go, next we will be discussing whether or not gay pap's should have the same rights as straight pap's





Mike who still can't tell the gender of a Cpap.... But hopes his is female.

On the Flintstones cartoon show they said " well have a gay ol time" in the song . Could that have bee some type of "conditioning"

I've been trying to avoid this thread, because TRYING to make a gay-themed joke seems wrong somehow. If one OCCURS to me, great. But I don't generally set out to make fun of anyone.

However, this quoted line reminds me just how often I have to hold my tongue. There is just so much crude comedic possibility in a treatment which involves a machine with a long hose blowing you all night long.

Whew. Got that out of my system. (Yeah, right, like now I'll magically stop making "hose" and other crude references.)

Liam, who is so glad he's got a much longer hose than he used to.

A straight PAP is used by those with sleep apnea to assist breathing whilst asleep. The air is blown through tubing to an interface. This air pressure is used to expand the airway preventing collapse. Only one pap is required. The interface is worn on your face.

A Gay PAP is used whilst awake . Two are required. Breathing is obstructed at the interface. The more pressure exerted by the gaypap the more obstructed breathing becomes until the tubing can no longer withstand the pressure . The tubing then collapses and breathing is restored . The gaypap then exchange tubing and the process is repeated . Gaypaps are easily identified because they are always in your face.

Sounds like a smear pap to me.

It's quite obvious....

a straight-pap has a male plug, which must be inserted into the female receptacle for it to "turn on."

a gay pap must first have it's male plug inserted into an adapter, which is then inserted into the female receptacle, for it to "turn on."

a bi-pap is the adapter!
