I think, "Let me whip on that WHITE suit- with the shoulder pads, because they will take attention away from any red stains that may appear on my white pants- and sit with my feathered hair staring at pink roses."
Whoever the marketing director for this (circa 1970's) had it right on
If I designed a BOX for a feminine hygiene product? It would look a bit more like this:
Not that I am currently crabby or anything. Nah.

I wanted feathered hair like that in the worst way for the longest time. Never got it though. Maybe that's a good thing as I wouldn't wanna be featured on any maxi-pad packaging.
Aieeee feathered hair makes me cringe!!! And YOU made me giggle!! I swear, Tampon ads were made by males in the 70's FOR SURE. Women weren't really allowed an OPINION back then.
And Roses? WHY would that woman be thinking of ROSES at that time?!
You crack me up!
Oh, so true!! But now with Kotex and others attempting to be trendy about how much it sucks, I think they might be making it worse. If we must endure ads, just say "We made a new product for your moon phase. Please try it. It comes with a complimentary chocolate bar." I don't really need any details other than that. But I do need a white suit and feathered hair...
I'm with you. Frilly lily white is not a part of the aura surrounding me at that time.
Oh yes---gotta love the commercials with the white pants. Who does that?!
Bahahaha! My "moon phase" image would include sweatpants and chocolate. And Advil and a couch.
Hahaha!! I've never heard it called the "Moon Phase"...but I might have to start calling it that myself!
Missed you, girl! Hope things are going well for you :)
xo
Perfection!! LMAO
I swear, I have never been more grateful than when my GYN (blessed woman) told me she didn't like my periods. Gee, I didn't like them either! One endometrial ablation later (I'm early forties and perimenopausal anyway, which is a whole new kettle of hormonal insanity) and I'm blessedly period-free.
Bliss, I'm tellin' ya.
*snort* yep - yours is SOOO much more accurate!
I think Tampax will be calling any time.
Totally agree with the comment above about wanting them to come with a chocolate bar. And some Dr Pepper. Something about the caffeine in it + 2 advil make it about the same as a midol.
OMG! Too perfect! Just what I needed today! LOL At least it's wood that's being axed!
Hilarious. You should totally send that image to a feminine hygiene product company with a serious letter telling them you want to pitch a new idea for their packaging and that your fee is very reasonable (like, say $1.5m?). And then blog about it!
hahahahaha! That just cracks me up! I told a friend I was PMS and wanted to write a post. She said, "don't PMS on your blog." - um.. I did anyway :) Love the pic!!! I should have put that at the bottom of my post.
How old is that box? Ha!
You never cease to crack me up.
Are you sure that box wasn't left over from the 1970's? Surely it's not a NEW box.
I think you may have some raw talent. That's surprising. Who knew?
LMAO!! For real though! =)
LOL!! I wouldn't use those unless I was leaking because obviously they've been around for a while. You know our country is in debt when agencies can't purchase pads more recent than circa 1970s.
That ad is just a little old. LOL.
I literally almost spit out my coffee. lol
Don't you just love the shoulder pad look, lol.
I love your advertisment better.
Have a great day!
LMAO! I'm definitely more like the second picture!
I heart you.
The end.
LOL Yes, please send that in to the marketing companies!
i can't talk i am laughing so hard
I'm with you..in my moon phase I mean. It's like the ad genius that put, "Have a happy period" on the always pads. Ass.
You rock, Sara!!!!
I'd try to come up with a witty comment if I wasn't still cracking.the.heck.up.
I've never been able to figure out those strange advertising execs!
I'm late, but this is awesome!
You know, I mean I'm late to your post. Not that kind of late.
