Least Likely to Breed carries a range of delightfully named pregnancy products, from "Tough Titties Nipple Rub" to "Roid Rage Hemorrhoid Remedy" -- as well as a diaper salve called "Bad Ass Booty Balm." I have no idea if the stuff is any good, but the product names are great. Link (Thanks, Leigh!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

The Snowden Principle

  • thordivel

    LOL – This reminds me of the South Park episode where Cartman finds his moms tampons. Branded “Beaver Dam”

  • javajeb

    Reminds me of the Cajun Boudreaux’s Butt Paste for diaper rash. Works well too.

  • msjen

    Very funny copy writing on the site. I love the factoid about Elizabethian babies being changed once every few days (ewwww).

  • Paul Charteris

    Once ultrarunners find out about this stuff it will sell like hotcakes.

  • BaS

    Not pregnancy related but young child related is a no rinse cleanser called “Mom Spit,” I saw info about it a couple months ago on a different blog.

  • Ivan

    I received a gift at a baby shower: “butt paste”.

  • mbimotmog

    Somewhat related, whenever I see an ad for that razor bump treatment cream “Bump Stopper” I immediately think that would be a great name for emergency contraception.

  • Ian70

    We’ve come a long way from Bag Balm, baby.

  • RyanH

    I am loving the idea of a maternity company called “Least Likely to Breed”

  • JM

    Makes me think of the Simpsons when Marge is finding out whether she’s pregnant using “Barnacle Bill’s Home Pregnancy Test.”
