View Full Version : Plug your eyes Guys, this one's for the ladies
Ok Ladies, I just seen a commercial that told me to "have a happy period" Well, WTF?? I can't seem to come up with any happy experiences which I attach to this affliction.
Les & I got a great belly laugh outta that one :hys:
Ok guys, you can join in if you feel the need but be careful, you're probably outnumbered by us "happy" PMS'ers :eri:

Lets just say this, the smart men just stand back and say "Yes Dear" and do as they are told. :hst:

Just rememeber when you have your "happy time", it makes our lives just as enjoyable having to deal with the things that go with it!!! :P

I know what you wrote, what I meant is that the smart man will stay away from a woman. I've been woman-free for 24 years and intend to keep it that way. Way to many problems with the female specie so I'll just wait for the next few hundred service packs to fix those issues.

I think its a good slogan for the commercial. Its for tampons, the point is that you WILL have a happy period.
It is still pretty funny though and the first tim I saw it laughed my ass off, while my boyfriend looked into space and wondered what was going on. ROFL

Well... I can only think of ONE thing to be happy about, surrounding this issue of menstruation LOL As a woman.. having my period is part of a cycle and process that led to me having my two sons.. directly/indirectly.. if I did not have periods, chances are I would not have them :) However, periods themselves.. NO.. definitely not happy times LOL :D
and next, I'm fully expecting to see a commercial with the poor brow-beaten man standing in front of this mountainous wall of feminine products in a grocery store. The "happy" voice will start singing..."remember what your wife told you?..........Yeah, that one". Seeing as there seems to be no end to that particular aisle, it just paints a real funny picture for me :)
I'm just so stunned at their thinking for these commercials, bombarding us with seafoam, bouncy red dots and happiness...makes me laugh out loud :vil:
um no coment.....
ditto.... lol:hsh:

The tribe of Ulithi calls a girl's rite of passage kufar. When a girl begins her first period, she must go to a menstrual house. She is joined by women of the village, who bathe her and recite magic spells. She will always return to the menstrual house during her period.
Smart people, those Ulithi. :D

That's actually pretty smart...Lock 'em up and drug em!
How's about me and you go into buisness? We could market these menstrual houses to men worldwide!
We need a name though, something with the words "chocolate", "pampered" and "hot tub". We'll be millionaires I tell you!

I try to keep a 4 block radius. I see them as kind of a cult, no doubt I'd be drawn inside only to find the 7th circle of hell and to face punishments worse then death for atrocities commited by "some guy" during an incident "sometime".

What do you suppose the world would be like if men were the ones who menstruated?
We would get one week per month off.
Tampons would cost about $0.50 for a pack of 20
