[AllIWantIsYourClutch]

"happy" and "period" should not be used in the same sentence.

[Ireneparalegal]

"happy" and "period" should not be used in the same sentence.
EXACTLY~!!!!!!!!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

SOOO TRUE!!!

[sara]

Those commercials drive me nuts. Every time I see it I want to yell "Lying bastards there's no such thing." :mad:

[~LadyJess~]

A happy period is the biggest oxymoron I have ever heard.

[Ireneparalegal]

True. And it was probably a bunch of MORONS at the ad agency that thought this commercial would be GREAT! :rolleyes:

[Hollow]

:rofl: that's hilarious, i'll watch for it.

[sara]

True. And it was probably a bunch of MORONS at the ad agency that thought this commercial would be GREAT! :rolleyes:
You know it was thought up by a man. There is no way in hell that a woman would have pitched an ad campaign like that.

of course. and to have a man's voice on top of that say that slogan: HAVE A HAPPY PERIOD....Pleeeeeeeze:rolleyes:

[Brieannas21]

:lol: :lol: :lol: I read this thread and cracked up. I've seen that commercial, it airs A LOT. I agree happy and period shouldn't be in the same sentence. They should do away with those ads, I think every woman knows what to go buy when her time of the month comes around. No need for advertisement. I've never seen a woman get excited over pads and tampons.

I am sure the guys would be happy to see this commercial gone too. I know my boyfriend would be. Even he said, "That's ridiculous; nothing abt your period makes you happy...no way will a pad make you happy!"

[Czas na Zywiec]

Irene, we're not happy when women get periods either! The person who created the commercial must have been either sexist or gay.

lol yea, all the girls I know say they can't stand commercials about periods because they always make them seem so nice and happy when it's anything but haha.

For real!

Oh, I took Midol and everything is suddenly so perfect and happy, and I'm ready to conquer the world LA LA LA!!! YEAH RIGHT!!!

[Penny Lane]

Must have been produced/written by a man!:rolleyes: There are some commercials (like this one) that I dislike so much that I will not buy their product. I could name a few............ but I won't. I'll save that for another thread.:lol:

[*MIBabe03*]

:lol: I've seen that commercial before. One time my sister was on her period and her friend sent her an email that said that. At the time, my sister did not find it funny.:lol:

[Dragonflies]

"happy" and "period" should not be used in the same sentence.

Damn straight!

[Courtnee]

:rofl: haha yeah I've seen it. It's creepy...:stressed:

[*MIBabe03*]

Yeah. I'm sooooo "happy" on my period. The cramping, bloating, and bleeding are the best time ever!! :rolleyes:

[Ireneparalegal]

Yeah. I'm sooooo "happy" on my period. The cramping, bloating, and bleeding are the best time ever!! :rolleyes:
Yeah, and I know the guys think it's the happiest time ever for them as well...:rolleyes:

Those idiots should be shot! I am going to email them. This is sick and sad. I am never happy when I am in agony, pain, all the ugliness of it. I am going to be 41 and I am looking forward to MENOPAUSE!!!!!

Those damn douche commercials I never see anymore. The one where the daughter says: "Mom, sometimes, I don't feel so fresh."
what mom SHOULD say is: "Well then go take a shower and clean yourself!!!"

PRETTY IN PINK...rotflmao!!!!!!!! exactly!!!!!

[Brieannas21]

I am looking forward to MENOPAUSE!!!!!


Me too and I'm only 25 :lol: I want to have another baby though so after my next one I'm done.

[Jo_Luvs_Ketchup]

Me and my sister watched this commercial the other day. I didn't really pay attention until I say "happy period". :eek: WTF "HAPPY" What is so happy about cramps and bloating? All the pain?? Then my sis says she has a happy period. I said what??? She honestly told me her periods don't bother her. :mad: My brother just asked what was a period. Didn't wanna go into that...:lol:

[PZelda]

Oh yes, it's definitely a happy period for me when I'm suffering from The Cramps From Hell™ and on the floor, in pain, praying for a quick and painless death...It's definitely a happy period when I almost pass out from the pain and when my lower abdomen feels like my uterus is trying to push out a GIGANTIC boulder. IT'S A HAPPY PERIOD, ALRIGHT! :cuss:

[Polniaczek033]

A happy period is the biggest oxymoron I have ever heard.
:lol: exactly.

I hate periods. Not so much bothered by the cramps, but I just find it a nuisance in my life.

[Ireneparalegal]

My boyfriend hates that commercial. He says, why do they need to tell women what they already know? I mean, it's no big secret.

[snl 70s show fan]

i cant speak for every guy here at so but im one guy who finds that whole ad campiagin insulting to women not only that but its just plain stupid

[Dr. Thong]

After hearing about this commercial, I'm having that not-so-fresh feeling.

[James"Thunder"Early]

I don't like commercials about personal products, I don't need to hear about things like that. Like the Preparation H commercials where people are moving around in chair because they didn't use it.
