For the females

A friend of mine just noticed this and notified me of it (in quite an irritated manner, I might add, and understandably so), though apparently it's been the slogan for Always products for a while. She said she opened up the package to her pad and inside she found a piece of paper holding the pad together that said "Have a happy period." I just became aware of this fact as well, but anway, it's awful to me that someone came up with that.

Are they insane? A happy period. falloff OK, my friend told me that she thought surely a male wrote this. Then again, now that I think about it more, it must have been a male who has never had a girlfriend or wife who is PMSing. I mean, really. Or even a mother! What happened to this dude's mama!?

Any thoughts? lol

I think they're trying to be cute or clever. It sounds like an ad slogan I'd come up with, actually.

The only way it can be a happy period is if they lined the fucker with morphine to kill the got damn cramps! Men! That is like my son's barber asking me if labor was painful trying to be funny. He said that he heard it is not as bad as women described it? Mind you he said this as he was walking away from me. As soon as he finished with my son's hair I slapped the shit out of his arm. You could see my finger prints on his fat ass arm. Fucker! mad

After the Supersize me movie that will never happen! The company will be scared that a bunch of pms'ing women are going to come after them for making them fat! lol They have no idea that providing us with our cravings of salt/sugar can prevent a lot of bodily injuries and deaths of stupid men.

They should make an after school special or PSA about it to warn the young ones!

lol I think it's pretty funny to be honest. It's like tripping over and grazing your knee whilst some clown comes up to you and say's 'enjoy your trip?'.
