THE MENSTRUATION PROCLAMATION

I've sympathised with more menstruating women than you've had hot sluts. I've recommended the hairdryer thing from Rosetta, I've held a warm arm to an internally bleeding belly (the outside of an internally bleeding belly), I've said aww, I've said bummer. Chicks dig sympathy man, and even though your making a long term (week tops?) commitment, once you've said aww, you're in as soon as the unused ovum - or is it ovary? - is out.

With four choices of sympathy I often feel unoriginal and cheap, unable to remember whether I sympathised identically with their identical twin, cuter but less willing friend or strangely not unattractive mother. With a varied selection of e-cards then I'm covered even if the entire Norwegian jiggleball team drove in on a coach with synchronised periods.

Nothing says listen to cheap midi music like an e-card. "Oh, thanks for the shitty little e-card," people say, and you're covered. Why not menstruation e-cards? "Oh, thanks for the shitty little menstruation e-card; it hasn't stopped the cramps, but at least I know you care. When this horrible period in my uterus' history is over I'll have sex with you if you want."

Feel the love. Taste the love. Gargle with the love. It's simple, it's easy, someone else does all the thinking for you, you get sex out of it, she gets sympathy out of it, the struggling British e-card industry gets a much needed shot in the arm, the struggling British heroin industry gets nothing, the thriving British black pudding industry gets to skim off the used tampons from flushed toilets as it has done for years. Mmm tasty.

Decry away bitch, I've got answers. E-cards not sympathetic? Fuck you. Jari Litmanen broke his wrist in eight places playing for Finland, and he played on, not even realising what he'd done. That's 'ard. It took him weeks to get over the breaks, and you're just moaning because of a few days? He had snapped bones, and you just had blood. Jari Litmanen isn't even that big and 'ard to look at him, he's a scrawny little creative genius of a playmaker, and you're a big fat 'ard woman with bloating. I'm sympathetic an' all, and I'll happily send you an e-card saying aww about the blood, but if you choose to decry my choice of sympathy you lose and Jari wins. Bitch.
