I am confused why an anarchist would plan to reuse tampons.

Organized anarchists? Isn’t that an oxymoron?

I dunno? I can see a bunch of anarchists organizing themselves to bring about anarchy.

You know, one guy brings the dish soap, one guy brings the gasoline and the last brings the empty glass bottles and napkins-

But organizing to push a social extremist agenda because they are pissed about a two party government? FAIL. What we have is a bunch of spoiled white kids being stupid.

way to miss the point of that article, folks…they’re not ‘extorting’ money, they’re offering to go away and stop protesting if the DNC spends their protest-busting budget on helping the community.

Pat,

You sound like a sexist moron. An intelligent person once said “anyone who uses the word ‘feminazi’. Does not know the meaning of the word ‘feminist’ or the word ‘nazi’, and I doubt that they have ever been to school”. Buddy, do yourself a favor and sleep on that.

Dude, you just made like half of this article up. Do you always just kind of make up shit? Why would you do that?

Also, class of 2008 usually means the person IS NO LONGER A STUDENT. And reusing tampons? You obviously didn’t read very closely.

Why you would spend your time and energy making up shit about someone who is trying to exercise free speech in a supposedly democratic society is just really mind boggling. Though it does actually make her look pretty cool, I think.

And sexist … I don’t think that is going to offend people as patriarchal as this.

Dear Pat,

I love it when people fly by your site, read one post, then tell you off for being funny. They sound very intelligent.

Sincerely,
Poppy

Which sounds an awful like “You got a nice convention here. It would be a shame if something happened to it.”

If the group promised not to destroy the city in exchange for a box of cookies, it would still be extortion.

And its a good point about the class of 2008 and Kelli no longer going to school there to waste her rich parents’ money. You don’t think this article, which appears as number 5 on a google search for Kelli Refer will affect her attempts to find a job, do you?

Oh dear. Maybe she can scrub used tampons for a living. Saving the planet, one menses at a time. Go hemp!

I really just don’t see why anyone would sit around writing mean stuff about some random person who is at least doing something.

I guess it’s supposed to be funny, but I don’t really get it. Is there something really terrifying about a woman using something other than a tampon that is such an offense to you that you need to write posts about it?

And there were several men quoted in that article (Kelli was not even quoted), and yet you chose to pick on her because she has a vagina. That’s really strange, and I’m not sure how that makes you any more manly.

Some people make me lose all hope for humanity. Thanks, buddy. Suck a strap-on.

Pat said in July 30th, 2008 at 12:25 pm

I said nothing “mean” about Kelli. I pointed out facts about her that she herself published on the Internet, including her love of “alternative” forms of feminine hygeine products. Allow me to quote:

The Keeper is a small cup made out of natural rubber that collects the blood instead of absorbing it.The Diva Cup works the same way, except that it is made of hypoallergenic rubber. The Diva Cup is the favorite of many a Knox female. This is because it is extremely eco-friendly and economical. Diva Cups cost around $30 but will last all of your menstruating years, or until you have a baby (where upon you will need to go up a size). Again, this also means you produce significantly less waste than with traditional products. The Diva Cup can be worn for up to 12 hours. Then you simply remove it, pour out the blood and/or rinse it out, and reinsert.

Is that terrifying? No, but its disgusting. And if she thinks she is going to save the planet by forgoing the use of sanitary off the shelf products, well, that just makes her stupid as well as disgusting.

You think she’s “doing something?” You mean besides extorting a city? Go ahead. Amuse me with your liberal catch phrases and explain what it is she’s doing in the wealthy suburb of Denver to save humanity.

Kelli was singled out because she is stupid to wear a mask in public and then give her name to a reporter.

And I love how, as a liberal, you are so intolerant of my own first amendment rights that you call me a homosexual. Why do you hate the gays?

what? said in July 30th, 2008 at 12:43 pm

Did i call you gay? I don’t remember that. Unless you are a female Pat, in which case my suggestion that you fallate a strap-on could be a lesbian act (and in which hate you must really hate yourself for being a woman). Last I checked, men don’t need strap-ons.

Also, she doesn’t have a bandana on in the video, and she was pretty much being awesome and brave by using her real name. That’s really risky, and you think she doesn’t know that?

And a Diva Cup is not a tampon. Look it up. And why is it disgusting? Why are you afraid of the human body? Does the female body really scare you that much?

A Diva Cup sounds like an athletic supporter for trannys.

Pat said in July 30th, 2008 at 1:35 pm

Don’t you follow links in articles? Or am I going to have to explain this article to you line by line? I would expect better reading comprehension and better spelling from an intern (or employee) of the Kansas City Star. I say intern because you are too young and stupid to be a reporter.

Maybe you midwestern lads fellate each other with strap-ons (note the proper spelling), but that seems like a strictly liberal pasttime.

Why don’t you suggest to your editor (or mail room boss since you are an intern) a story on the Diva Cup? I’m sure the readers in the Kansas City region would just love to read about alternative menstrual devices. Or maybe a better idea: Go make some copies and quit wasting your company’s time playing on blogs.

Forgive me, but I fail to see the risk or the bravery in any of this. Anyone who tries to use their right to “free speach” while hiding their face is a coward. Notice they don’t take the risk and show the bravery necessary to circulate petitions, get on a ballot, and actually run for elective office. They cover their faces and threaten to riot….cowards.

Your fear of alternative menstrual products is one example of the intimidated sexism that necessitated the invention of the word ‘vajayjay.’ Fact is, if you’re going to be a woman your whole life, you have to get used to dealing with gross shit sometimes. Might as well not hurt the environment and your body while you’re at it.

mygif
Pat said in August 1st, 2008 at 4:32 pm

Deana,

You have sat starry eyed at one too many productions of the Vagina Monologues. No one fears feminine products, and vajayjay was invented to circumvent the stuffy FCC so tv and radio personalities could say vagina without being censored.

And if you are born a woman, you stay a woman your whole life, so I’m not sure what your point is.

And to suggest that common feminine hygeine products either harms the environment OR the woman that uses them is a lie.

This is America, so you can use whatever you want. But the alternatives are pretty gross. This is the 21st century, not the days of covered wagons and knotted rags.

But you can say penis as much as you want. Why is vagina censored and penis isn’t? That was my whole point, that and the fact that you DO stay a woman your whole life, so you should probably get over being squeamish as fast as you can or you’re going to be terribly uncomfortable for 1/4 of your reproductive life.
