And, let's not forget pistols...

Oh my god, thank you for posting that. I laughed so hard there were tears streaming down my face. Seriously, holy shit.

I worked at Planned Parenthood for almost a decade and so many (so many!) women forget about that last tampon of the cycle. They also usually have no idea that there's a tampon that's been stuck there for a month. You'd think the kind of women who forgets this sort of thing would be some sort of cracked-out loser, but no, they're usually well-groomed, smart(ish), generally with-it women.

You think that's weird, you should see the stuff guys get stuck in their penis -- like ten feet of tennis racket string:

My aunt nearly died from a forgotten tampon infection.

These women either have really long vaginas or really short fingers.

While a nurse in a University Health Center, I have chased tampons before. worse than tampons is chasing a condom. jesus those things are next to impossble to grab ahold of. Spaghetti tongs or rather their medical equivalents are vital.

:O ....

GOOD GOD CIENNA.

Well, this is how you can justify upgrading to a phablet.

And that is why I stear clear of vaginas...

My husband once in his youthful exuberance literally blasted the end of a condom off inside of me. Ever industrious (even at the age of 17), I used a tampon to retrieve the errant cap of rubber from the depths of my vagina. And I NEVER trusted the condoms handed out by the health department again. Ironically, a few years later I discovered that the nice lady at the health department who had given me that handful of condoms was his mother, who was at the time the public health nurse. She was not the custodial parent and had moved out of state shortly after that incident; I made the connection when I met her a few months before the wedding. She could easily have unknowingly contributed to the conception of her first grandchild.

And seriously, ew.

Man, the Moe Tkacik bit made me remember how awesomely hilarious Jezebel used to be.

You can get your hand up there, I assure you.

Stinky tofu done right is actually quite delicious
