Oh, the ingenuity of advertising! Now they even have notable anecdotes on the paper that protects the sticky parts of sanitary napkins (do they have a name for that?), apart from the added scent that is supposed to mask the smellies, the floral prints that are supposed to calm your nerves after the realization that you're bleeding 4 cups worth of blood, the funky colours that they come in now to match the colour of your undies, the funky genius that is the pantyliner for thong-backs (why anyone would want to wear them while recovering from the attack of the Red Tide still baffles me crazy), and the brightly coloured packets they come in, just screaming of sanitary designer chic! Oh oh, did I mention that they've got wiiings to fly?

Am I bored or what?
