If i need a tampon,,that measn im PMSing,,& if im PMSing i sure as hell dont have a smile on my face!

Just give me a god dam tyl#3 & an Naproxen.

Ok,,speaking of idiotic commercials,,the stupidist, most annoying one is where they spell out on the beach ..."Send more Tampons"...

ENOUGH ALREADY!!!

True.

You know those toys you can get that are mini sponges that expand when you put them in water? Usually into some animal shape?

I wish tampons were like that. In goes a little capsule, out comes a dolphin!

tackam said:

that is a great idea! i would buy them!

tackam said:

they dont...?!

AMEN to tampons!!

tackam said:

OB tampons are kind of like that...but, I've never given birth to a dolphin.

tackam said:

Neat! I want a gorilla, like the animal cookies.

My OB/GYN prescribed Naproxen to me because of my cramps. I'm not going to stop taking them...it's the only thing that helps!

applekisses said:

It's probably fine. The pop press likes to freak out about these things 'cause it makes people notice, but other studies have shown NSAIDS to have a cardioprotective effect, and naproxen has been widely used for quite a while now, so if it were really so freakin' deadly, I think we would have known it.

And yeah, Naproxen is the only thing that prevents migraines for me. I'll accept the risk (inherent in all drugs) for the benefit.

tackam said:

It prevents your migraines? wow! I'll have to try that. I usually don't take anything to stop them from happening...it's always to stop them from getting worse. I take Zomig for that.

This thread is hilarious!

applekisses said:

I used to have KILLER menstrual cramps that would double me over and Naproxen was the only thing that helped me, too.

I'm glad you found something that works for you. I'd not want to stop taking them either.

SnowQueen said:

Thanks OMG...your avatar is awesome! I saw Dennis Quaid wearing a "vote for Pedro" t-shirt on The Daily Show the other day!

Kids lighting tampons like sticks dynamite-it's a scary thing.

Sadly a true story told to me years ago.

applekisses said:

Thank you.

That is so cool about Dennis Quaid! I knew there was a reason I've always liked him. I wish I'd have seen that!

ya'll know which tampon commercials are the absolute end? tampax commercials...for example, that one with the "goldilocks & the three bears"-type bit (the heavy flow was too big...the juniors were too small, but the light flow was juuuuust right!) and that stupid on-a-desert-island "send tampax" crap.

i just saw their newest commercial last night. the basis of it:

girl is on the rag.
girl has "plain" tampons.
girl does not want "plain" tampons.
girl goes to her friend's room in search of her beloved tampax.
girl's friend is in the midst of a make-out/pre-coital session with her bf.
girl sneaks in the room, commando-style, and steals a handful of tampons.


what...the...hell...????

Nice banner.

I'll tell you what the hell, my dear. Women are dirty. We know this. Therefore, the idea of inserting cotton bullets full of bleach excites us to no end. Nevermind the cancer, ladies. Clorox that female filth, even if you have to pull off a Mission: Impossible-type tampon-swiping caper.

FunkMistress said:

i am so glad i don't even use tampons...

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

What about these:



The menstrual cup.

I know some women swear by them and love them but they just seem weird and messy to me.

SnowQueen said:

that looks like an alien turkey baster. no way i'd stick that up my cooch!

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Get outta that box. Let's try them. It keeps the menstrual fluid in the cup thingy, which we can then use for our voudou rituals. Think of the money we'll save on young chickens, my sister.

FunkMistress said:

I know of some women who fertilize their houseplants with it. Seriously.

SnowQueen said:

So do I. There's nothing bizarre about that.
