[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was so offended when a friend told me not to flush tampons. Did she think I was a monster?! (I wasn't even on my period) After reading here how common it is I feel less offended.[/quote]

I feel like maybe I need to nail a plaque in my bathroom now.  Perhaps there are hidden morons among my friends.  I truly thought this was common knowledge to every menstruating girl/woman.  I never occurred to me someone would not know this, or even worse, know and not care and flush anyway.[/quote]

Gosh, I wish I knew everything about everything just like you. Guess I’ll always be someone’s moron![/quote]

[b]This isn’t deep knowledge, it is just basic life common sense. [/b] Like don’t leave your purse in the car, don’t put a can of soda in the freezer, empty the lint collector of your dyer after loads..[/quote]

Except that many people on here have told you otherwise. Go ahead and put that sign on your bathroom.[/quote]

I would laugh so hard if I went into a friend's bathroom and there was a sign on the wall that said "HEY MORONS, I THOUGHT THIS WAS COMMON KNOWLEDGE BUT APPARENTLY SOME VERY STUPID PEOPLE DON'T KNOW YOU SHOULDN'T FLUSH TAMPONS. SO THIS IS YOUR OFFICIAL WARNING NOT TO FLUSH TAMPONS OR I WILL UNFRIEND YOU FOREEEEEEVVVVVVEEEERRRR."

I have not flushed a tampon since I learned, at the ripe old age of 33, that you are not supposed to (no one told me! I'm glad I eventually found out!). But if I saw such a sign, I'd flush my tampon, let her know, and enjoy the peace and quiet of no longer being friends with this person. In fact, even if I was not on my period, I'd fish my emergency tampon out of my purse and throw it in the toilet just to flush it. Hahahahahahahahahaha.[/quote]
So how did you find out this info at 33 that you should have figured out in your teens at the latest unless the wolves raised you (No offense intended toward the wolves who may have raised you. I think it is damned decent of them to take on the task)? I would have laughed about the message your host posted that was a funny, quippy, effective way to make the point while giving ignorant folks a way to do better.) if you flouted that? It’s because you are the moron your host referred to.[/quote]
