Today, I had just reached in my purse without looking to grab a granola bar when my boss walked in my office. We talked for a few minutes as he kept giving me strange looks and looking at my hand. He left and I realized I hadn't taken a granola bar out, but a tampon instead. FML

Today, I bought a box of tampons and went to the store restroom to insert one. I then put the box inside my purse. On my way out, I got stopped by security, who yelled at me to empty my purse. He grabbed my bag, spilling the tampons everywhere. Apparently, he thought I was stealing. FML

Today, I was expecting my period. To avoid the embarrassment of everyone in the office finding out, instead of putting tampons in my bag, I hid one in my bra. It fell out while I was coming back from lunch. I am now known to all as "The Tampon Dispenser". FML

Today, in class, I reached into my bag to pull out a tampon, which I hid under my sleeve so I could make a quick escape to the restroom. My teacher yelled at me, because she thought I'd taken out my phone. I then had to prove myself by showing the tampon to the whole class. FML

Today, I forgot I left my tampons in a grocery bag packed with food that I put into the fridge. I realized two hours later while frantically looking for a tampon. I'm still cold down there. FML

Today, at work, I was walking to the back office, and I didn't know my manager was following me. After I walked through the door, without looking, I reached behind me to close it. Instead of grabbing the door handle, I got a handful of his crotch. FML

Today, while at work being a waitress, I gave my customer his credit card receipt to sign. Instead of giving him a pen, I pulled a tampon out of my apron pocket and handed it to him. FML

Today, someone at work put their used, bloodied tampon applicator back in its wrapper, and into the free tampon bin for some sucker to grab. That sucker was me. FML

Today, while working an early shift, I was dressing a wound on a gorgeous guy, when he laughed and pointed out some granny panties next to me on the floor. I guess I forgot to take yesterday's underwear out of my pants before putting them back on this morning. FML

Today, while working in a dark nightclub, I dropped a red charger. Retracing my steps, I found it, or so I thought until I picked up a used tampon. FML

a tampon doesn't feel like a granola bar, it's thinner and round..

FYL more when you realize where your granola bar is.

so did you open it up and try to take a bite? considering it took a few minutes for you them to say something and i am assuming you grabbed a granola bar to eat it...

almost the same thing happend to me. i was at a dinner for my grade school reunion last year when i was in grade 12, i havent seen most of these people for 4 years. and i ended up sitting next to the shyest girl from my grade 8 class, who i have barely ever spoken too. we were talking about how i brought pictures from when we were little and i went to pull out my camera from my purse and say "now we can take more!" but instead a tampon got caught on the string of my camera and flew out of my purse onto the lap of the girl next to me, infront of all the girls and BOYS from my old grade school...haha.

Maybe you should quit trying to explain yourself in comments. You ****** up, so? Be glad it wasn't something worse.

So glad I'm not a woman, I don't have to have a bag with me that has everything I 'need' in it all the time. If I need to carry more than what I usually do, I'll just buy cargo pants.

I'm a girl and I don't carry a purse... it's too inconvenient. You must use REALLY HUGE tampons to mistake one of them for a granola bar...
