The trash isn’t picked up on time, and the public schools are failing, but at least New York City is on top of condom distribution. New Yorkers will be greeted by city health officials today handing out special NYC condoms; the slogan: “get some.”

The city wants New Yorkers to “get some” this Valentine’s Day. The Department of Health and Mental Hygiene unveiled its 2008 safer sex awareness campaign with new posters, banners, and TV ads featuring a colorful and sexy message. The city also unveiled a new look for the wrapper of its free condom.

The slogan is — wait for it — “Get Some.”

Street teams from the health department will meet commuters around the city Thursday to hand out the new NYC Condom for Valentine’s Day, officials said.
