at least her mommy loves her, at least it's fun to mock, not racism wank! yay, otf_wank's thoughts on weddings

I have to admit, I don't even know how to sum this up.

Bride - or should I say, former Bride - reveals her theory that Brides are the Center of the Universe

After opening with her credentials to be advising Bridesmaids, she says:

And yes, my dear ladies, being in a bridal party is a job, and I am going to tell you what to do, thus this letter. I am advocate for the Bride in your life.

And then she goes on. And on. And on. With numbering, for easy reference. And then more numbering.

The comments are a fascinating mix of "OMG! you are so right!!!" and "OMG! You are so CRAZY".

The whole thing makes me glad I eloped.

	"I have a runny nose. Have you got a tissue?" "No, but I've got a tampon." Used to be a running joke around my high school friends, since he actually did accept her tampon and stick it up his nose. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I think that only happens specifically within the nootch. But TSS of the nostril would be - something! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I don't know about tampons, but at the barn we always kept a pack of maxi pads to use as wound dressing if a horse got cut and started bleeding. Very effective at keeping the stable aisle from looking like Freddy paid a visit.

I have ~~mentioned it a few times~~ lobbied tirelessly to have our ambulances stocked with them, since the absorbent wound dressings we currently have are super expensive and have terrible absorbency.

	You could also try diapers. I know someone who does some magic tricks, and he says it's cheaper to buy diapers and rip out the powder than buy the stuff. Maybe your ambulance people would like diapers instead of maxis? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	We do have diaper-style bandages for injuries in ...awkward places. You know they are better than normal diapers because the medical supply people told us so! And they cost way more! Hooray! Sadly, I am still a lowly volunteer, so I don't really get a say in much. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Well, disposable pads were invented using material that had originally been designed as dressing for wounds. So you're actually using them for their original intended purpose. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I did not know that. JF is so informative! I just really liked using them in my medicine kit because they don't stick to dried blood on the skin like the cottony dressings will sometimes. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Extra-large puppy wee-wee pads work excellently as well. We've been using them as part of our horse's dressing. (Reply to this)(Parent)
