Yeah LOL Because back then $60 for your wreck was a deal!!

And your question just proves to me you never read half the shit posted here LOL I'm in the Army, but I'm from Chicago. I grew up there for 20 years, moved to Southern Illinois to go to college (SIUC) and have been all over the world since then as an Army Officer. I was just back in Chi-town for a Cubs game over Memorial Day and was also there for Christmas '10 and unfortunately January '11 because my dad passed away.

I love Chicago and miss it terribly, but I do not miss living in Illinois...hence why I just go home for short visits now LOL

I took the Blue Line L to see my brother in Forest Park over Memorial Day and then the Blue Line and Brown Line back to my hotel in Wrigleyville. Luckily I emerged unstabbed that night LOL But I was armed with my own blade as well! Before I moved to Southern I was going to school at UIC back in '96-'97 and would take the Blue Line from Des Plaines Ave in Forest Park to Racine Ave every day.

Agree! And that letter you posted is so true and completely hilarious.


The ones I hate most - I don't want to go looking for these ads to post because I just know I'll end up with spam in my email and some choice "targeted ads" everywhere else I go on the web - but I despise drug ads, especially for drugs like Cialis and Viagra.

By the time they get done listing all the possible side-effects, I figure I'd rather feel a little unwell than risk all that. Rolleyes

And what is with the Cialis and Viagra commercials always showing a couple in seperate bathtubs somewhere like on the beach or in the mountains. If you're in seperate bathtubs how does Cialis or Viagra help in that situation?

Maybe he'll grow out of it. Lol, that is some great parenting right there.

Lol, I don't know how many times my door just fell off. Dark realism there.

There are some really horrible local ones here, will have to see if I can find some. They LOOK like they were made 30 years ago, but in fact were made like a week ago.

If I saw that when I opened the blinds I'd probably shoot him.

This time I would definately shoot him!


Yeah those always seemed intentionally creepy. Not sure why they wanted creepy on purpose but if it wasn't on purpose I don't get those at all.

Dear Mr Thatcher,

I have been a loyal user of your Always maxi pads for over 20 years, and I appreciate many of their features. Why, without the LeakGuard Core or Dri-Weave absorbency, I'd probably never go horseback riding or salsa dancing, and I'd certainly steer clear of running up and down the beach in tight, white shorts. But my favourite feature has to be your revolutionary Flexi-Wings. Kudos on being the only company smart enough to realize how crucial it is that maxi pads be aerodynamic. I can't tell you how safe and secure I feel each month knowing there's a little F-16 in my pants. Have you ever had a menstrual period, Mr. Thatcher? Ever suffered from "the curse"? I'm guessing you haven't. Well, my "time of the month" is starting right now. As I type, I can already feel hormonal forces violently surging through my body.

Just a few minutes from now, my body will adjust and I'll be transformed into what my husband likes to call "an inbred hillbilly with knife skills." Isn't the human body amazing? As brand manager in the feminine-hygiene division, you've no doubt seen quite a bit of research on what exactly happens during your customers' monthly visits from Aunt Flo. Therefore, you must know about the bloating, puffiness and cramping we endure, and about our intense mood swings, crying jags, andout-of-control behaviour. You surely realize it's a tough time for most women. In fact, only last week, my friend Jennifer fought the violent urge to shove her boyfriend's testicles into a George Foreman Grill just because he told her he thought Grey's Anatomy was written by drunken chimps. Crazy! The point is, sir, you of all people must realize that America is just crawling with homicidal maniacs in capri pants.
Which brings me to the reason for my letter. Last month, while in the throes of cramping so painful I wanted to reach inside my body and yank out my uterus, I opened an Always maxi pad, and there, printed on the adhesive backing, were these words: "Have a Happy Period." Are you fucking kidding me? What I mean is, does any part of your tiny middle-manager brain really think happiness-actual smiling, laughing happiness-is possible during a menstrual period? Did anything mentioned above sound the least bit pleasurable? Well, did it, James? FYI, unless you're some kind of sick S&M freak girl, there will never be anything "happy" about a day in which you have to jack yourself up on Motrin and Kahlúa and lock yourself in your house just so you don't march down to the local Walgreens armed with a hunting rifle and a sketchy plan to end your life in a blaze of glory.


For the love of God, pull your head out, man. If you just have to slap a moronic message on a maxi pad, wouldn't it make more sense to say something that's actually pertinent, like "Put Down the Hammer" or "Vehicular Manslaughter Is Wrong"? Or are you just picking on us? Sir, please inform your accounting department that, effective immediately, there will be an $8 drop in monthly profits, for I have chosen to take my maxi-pad business elsewhere. And although I will certainly miss your Flexi-Wings, I will not for one minute miss your brand of condescending bullshit. And, that's a promise I will keep. Always.


"an inbred hillbilly with knife skills". Best line ever.

This letter cracked both me and my wife up. Funny but true.
