That new Adult Content rating thingy.

[icarus]

I changed my general settings to Adult Content then looked at my LJ.

All of my posts looked the same, with the same cut-tag. The only difference from one post to the next was the title and the music.

"Wow. What a boring journal," I said.

Eh. Forget it. I turned the settings off.

I have a percentage in being interesting to newcomers. Why read if I'm not?

I figure that between the Buddhism, school stuff, the whacked out mom (did I tell you about the time she told my friend Christopher he was the Antichrist?), David Hewlett videos, figure skating, laughing at George Bush our-new-peace-activist, annoying landlady, recs, memes, forgetting which toothbrush is whose -- yeah, I'm not seeing 50% explicit content. That setting's not for me.

In other news -- what did they do to TampaxTM? These haven't changed in 30 years and they're now... ow. They're short and stubby and too wide and shapped all wrong. Ow. This is not a place I want to hurt.

I'm none too pleased with the change in Tampax, too. But I've tried the other brands and like them even less.

I do like the new applicator though. Easier to get a grip on.

:)

You need to start a letter writing campaign to the bozos who made the change. We want our old-fashioned tampons back!

Okay. I'll go now.

Yeah, the new applicator's good. I want my Tampax back. I'm crabby. Tired. I'm dehydrated and I have cramps. This is not the time for Tampax to irritate me.

Ditto?

I'm cranky and tired and crampy myself. Plus extra aches from the moving.

I've been using the new stuff for at least a couple months now. Longer, I think.

And thank you for bringing up the topic. Helps to remind me I need to go out and buy more. Dammit.

I'm trying new kinds.

This is far too uncomfortable for me. When I started take them out just to get rid of them I knew the new style was never going to work.

For what it's worth, it looks like the WalMart 'Equate' brand Tampax equivalents have not changed. And they're cheap. Okay, you have to go to wally world to get them, but...

I hate that there's not more choices with cardboard applicator. Tampax and Equate. That was all they had. Everything else, except o.b. of course, was plastic.
