“Hey Cleo! Look at this.”<\/p>\n

Dixie googled the tiny handcuff key that Nero had mentioned and found the website that made them. And they had other products as well.<\/p>\n

Dixie showed Cleo a product that looked like a bullet vibrator. However, instead of a tiny battery-operated motor, it contained four lock picks, a “bend to fit” tension wrench, the handcuff key, two different kinds of lock shims, a Kevlar saw, a diamond rod saw, a ferrocerium fire rod, three waxed jute fire starters, and a ceramic razor blade.<\/p>\n

“‘If your occupation or recreation takes you into dangerous situations,” Dixie read aloud, “you’ll want to have an EscapeModule on hand… or wherever you can keep it hidden. Just 3.2″ long, this tiny o-ring sealed module houses lifesaving escape and survival tools.'”<\/p>\n

“Apparently, you can use the casing as a flint too,” Cleo noted.<\/p>\n

“Sounds like it depends,” Dixie said. She read on. “‘Included in this order (but not fitting inside the module) is a small petrolatum packet for just about any survival use you can imagine.’
\n
\n“Hmmmmmmm, it sure is weird how the lube doesn’t fit inside the thing. Where do they expect you to keep it?” Dixie said, playing dumb.<\/p>\n

“Yes, I love how deftly the copy dances around what it’s for,” Cleo chuckled. “Are you going to buy it then?” she teased.<\/p>\n

“I gotta be honest,” Dixie said. “I’m-a two minds about it. On the one hand, am I gonna walk around with a dead bullet vibe in just in case<\/em>? No. It probably sets off metal detectors. But ya know<\/em> if ya ever get in a situation where this’d be handy…”<\/p>\n

“You’ll be thinking to yourself, ‘If only’ the whole time,” Cleo said, trailing off into a peal of chortles.<\/p>\n

“Yeeesss!” Dixie said, dragging her hands down her face in hysterical acknowledgement of their newly amended reality. She recovered and added, “Plus, being able to say you’re going to pull an escape plan out of your ass and then actually follow through<\/em>? That’s comedy gold, right there.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

So the clip key is based on the Tiny Inconspicuous Handcuff Key or TIHK<\/a>. And while I was checkin’ to see if this company still existed, I found that not only do they still exist, but they have more products now. Including this one<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Which inspired this story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
