I’ve had enough. It’s time to speak out.
The iPad was introduced this week. Immediately, fucktards of every stripe started making jokes about maxi-pads. The degree to which this disgusts me is sky fucking high. To be clear: the people cracking the jokes disgust me. I am not in any way disturbed by the realities of menstruation. But to chortle over one's supposed cleverness for coming up with the comedic gem "iTampon?" Yeah, you deserve to have diarrhea pumped into your nostrils with a turkey baster. Every time you make a maxi-pad joke, a baby chipmunk gets run over by a lawn mower. These maxi-iPad jokes actually suck the pre-existing humor out of the world. You have to tell two actually funny jokes to get the ambient humor back to healthy levels. For the sake of fuck, quit with the goddamn maxi-pads, people.

Yes. Within 20 minutes of the product announcement there were 3 different variations on that joke in my limited twitter feed. Not only is it a bad joke, it’s a bad joke everyone is making, which is even worse. Why don’t they make the whole plane out of the black box?

I guiltily admit that I love the black box plane bit.
