Sep 20 2009Reusable Pokémon Woman Pad Thingies

I don't even know what to say except WTF, HORF and I would totally tape that to my head like a do-rag. Available for $8 on Etsy, this reusable menstrual pad (I can't believe I'm typing this) is perfect for the Pokémon-loving, environmentally friendly chick with unshaven pits in your life. Not bleach safe or for human consumption. Really?! THEN WHY DID I JUST EAT ONE? Wait, why did I just eat one? My stomach: pump it. The contents: gotta catch 'em all!
Pokémon Menstrual Pad, Yours for Eight Bucks [kotaku]
Thanks to Aisha, I think.

8. Cruisemissleking - September 20, 2009 7:33 PM

I dont get it. Its not visible in use so why have a picture on it? Does it double as a coaster or can you knot it into a fashionable bow tie? Can you sew a bunch together to make an oven mitt? Chuck on some elastic and make a sleeping eye mask? Use it as a dog blanket for your Chihuahua (back off Paris, im trademarking that you biatch).

Interestingly enough, this is relevant to a drunken conversation I had last night. They should make a women's pad that features the mark of Khorne (from Warhammer) and the text "BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD"
I'd buy a box for my girlfriend to wear.
23. ciao - September 20, 2009 10:31 PM
it would be cute if they made one with a target sign....haha
24. L33terThanThou - September 20, 2009 10:34 PM
It's called a tampon.
25. DeathKappaFoo - September 20, 2009 10:59 PM
L33terThanThou you are an idiot, a tampon goes INSIDE this is a PAD, it just kinda lays there.
26. applespice - September 21, 2009 12:16 AM
a murder scene would be more appropriate..
27. obi wanz bb - September 21, 2009 12:29 AM
it may look ~naturally hip~ & all but it also looks like it would feel exactly like a diaper... I'LL PASS.
28. z4x0r - September 21, 2009 12:34 AM
@ troy
I have the same blanket as well! I'm a little confused right now...

That yellow thing looks awfully happy to be receiving vaginal secretions upon itself.

i use these (not the pokemon kind lol) and they're not as terrible as people think.
they're incredibly comfortable (compared to the plastic disposable kind) because they're made from what underwear are made from. they're not bulky and there's no sticky parts to mess around with.
i dont think casual users would use these exclusively. they're better to use at night when flow is lower, or with a tampon, or when spotting.
if i choose to use one of these while i go somewhere, i put a plastic baggy in my bag for an easy place to put it until i get home.
they wash out a lot better than one would think too. i wish more people would be open to trying these out. they're not as terrible as they seem lol.
32. a user of these - September 21, 2009 3:56 AM
ALSO, they're a lot cheaper in the long run. upfront they're a lot more money, but in the long run, you spend less on disposable options, which also helps the environment.

ALSO AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, pikachu is on the BOTTOM. there will be no direct bleeding on pikachu. check it out on the etsy page: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=31135621

35. Jaded Icon - September 21, 2009 7:51 AM
I really have nothing classy to say about this........so why start now?
I didn't know Pikachu had wings?
36. graf zeppelin - September 21, 2009 10:40 AM
@20 perhaps the unintentionally best spam ever.
but. are pokemon fans really that old? you mean there's a market for it?
but surely you could not make a twilight one right? eee... right?
37. JP - September 21, 2009 12:34 PM
Iiii can't see myself using this as cute as he is he wouldn't be yellow after the first use ever again..
38. Goblin - September 21, 2009 3:34 PM
meh..i'll just wait for the re-usable tampon.
39. pirhan - September 21, 2009 9:15 PM
I <3 you Geekologist.
40. Blastphemer - September 22, 2009 11:10 AM
Still waiting for the crucifix version (baby jesus and/or the virgin mary versions might be even more demented - hell, you could sell them as a set). So wrong on so many levels...would make a billion $$$!!!
Yes, sometimes I even feel like I've gone too far. That's usually how I know I'm on to something (or just on something).
Must go bleach out my mind now and say 50,000,000 Hail Mary's.
41. Ryu - September 24, 2009 11:20 PM
Wow.
If I weren't completely grossed out by the sight of my own blood I would totally buy one.
Maybe I'll buy one anyway to use as a wall decoration. :P
42. vale - October 16, 2009 10:59 PM
