Public Service Announcement Re: Handcuffs

[lilminx]

Make sure you know where the key is BEFORE you cuff or get cuffed, and then put it in a place away from where you're playing.


I almost lost the one for mine- good thing I wasn't the one cuffed.


I had to use pliers to open one of the links connecting the two cuffs. It was pretty funny imagining him having to go to work today with bracelets on.

We found it afterwards, thank goodness.

Re: Re: Public Service Announcement Re: Handcuffs

Admit it.... You just wanted to really play with the pliers.

Ouch!

It'd be worse having to call a locksmith to get them off.

actually, paranoia makes me not only check that i have the keys, but that i have the right keys and they will open the cuffs again

This is the sort of thing you read about but never happens to you ??

Ours are for play, so they have the quick release button on them anyway, probably just as well actually 'cause I'll be buggered if I know where the keys are!!

I have a thing about my keys, I always must know where they are and I am sure this key phobia would pass on thru to handcuff keys .. plus I know how to pick a lock , so I am thinking that might come in handy if I ever cuff a man ...

Lock picks are easy enough to make and once you have the hang of it, easy to do. We were constantly called out to unlock cars in Germany cause some fool would loose the keys. I had jacked a few cars in my adolencence (spelling) so it kinda carried over. Good skill to have indeed.

wood,

I learned this little skill when I was in junior high, the neighbor hood boy taught me and it does come in handy, I have unlocked my car and other people's .. so it has saved me once or twice.

This reminds me. One morning before school, we were out smoking on the smoking trail when my boyfriend and his buddy thought it would be cool to handcuff me to a tree. Well, it was quite humorous til they realized they didn't have the key. And of course they cuffed me to a green branch that we couldn't break. After struggling for an hour and them searching the car a few times they finally found the key. By then the cuffs had marked me quite well. So, here I walk inot art class (thank God I had a cool teacher) and she asks why I was so late. I told her I was cuffed to a tree and she giggled. I told her "No, really," and held out my wrists. The look on her face was priceless.

And why is this a good thing?

Reading "Gerald's Game" by Stephen King will really get you thinking about where that key is!

A woman is handcuffed to a bed in a remote cabin. Her husband suffers a heart attack and dies, leaving her there to deal with wild dogs and other creepy creatures.

The key should be within reach of BOTH partners...just in case!

I loved that book!

I'm not really a SK fan, but have read a few of his books. This one stuck with me - actually came up in conversation just a couple of days ago!

It's been years, but it stays in the back of my mind whenever I think about handcuffs.

I used to try and get my hands on every book that he'd written but that was some time ago. I agree, that one has a way of sticking with you ........... it really freaked me out! *LOL*

That is one of my favorites. It is because of that book that a key stays on a hook above the bed with in reach. It can be taken down orally by the person handcuffed.

I work at a hotel, and recently a guest had an incident with a faulty pair of handcuffs in which the latch on one side broke and WOULD NOT OPEN. Not for the quick-release lever, not for the key. I'm not sure how she eventually removed it, but there was talk of a trip to the emergency room to have it cut off before she managed it.

The worst part? The guest in question was a high school student on a field trip. Now mind you, she came back from the mall with the cuff attached to her wrist, so I'm about 99.9999999% sure it did NOT get there as a result of a compromising position, but still... You could see the chaperones trying very hard not to panic while they imagined explaining the emergency room bill to the child's mother.

You know, I'm usually so diligent about those things, but I knew that I put them in my nightstand drawer with the cuffs after the last time I used them, so I figured that I would just fish them out of the drawer when I was done. I guess the keys came out with the cuffs and ended up underneath him.

Islandman, are you saying that it would have been better if I was cuffed and the keys were lost? Why- would you have rescued me?

Tswyk - that was a great book- I was so scared to use cuffsafter it- lol.

Nah. I would have enjoyed the visual of you begging and pleading to be set free more.

What would I have to do to be set free?

I'm kind of enjoying the idea of this too.

 

[islandman]

Bake me cookies.

 

[lilminx]

Easy enough.
