Today, my mother-in-law purchased matching Christmas presents for myself and my sister-in-law to open together in front of everyone. Guess who are now the proud owners of matching metal tampon cases. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was having a garage sale and my mother-in-law came by to see what I was selling. She decided to buy these ugly green wine glasses that were still unopened. It turns out that she gave those to my wife and me when we got married. FML
Today, my mother-in-law gave me a toaster and a fork as a wedding gift. FML
Today, I bought my mom a gift certificate for a spa treatment for two so we could spend some quality time together. She took my sister. FML
Today, my boyfriend's mom bought us matching purity rings. FML
Today, my mother sent off a handmade Christmas wreath I made for my 70-year-old grandmother. It wasn't until after it was sent that we realized the box it was packed in was originally for adult diapers. FML
Today, as I was waiting in line to give my mom her birthday present, my dad gave her the exact same gift I'd also bought for her. FML
Today, while doing our Christmas shopping, my sister showed me a product that she really hated. The same one I bought her for Christmas. FML
Today, at the office, everyone in my department swapped secret santa presents. I bought the guy whose name I picked a DVD box-set of his favorite TV series. One of my friends got a fancy make up kit. Another got a pack of posh notebooks. I got a toilet plunger. FML
Today, I discovered my mom has been using my credit card to buy everyone's Christmas presents. FML
Today, my soon to be mother-in-law sent me a birthday present. It was a necklace for me to wear at my wedding. The pendant is a well known lesbian symbol. I'm a woman and I'm marrying her son. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Hey, those could come in handy... You know... If your house ever gets bombed and you happen to be on your period. Don't be so ungrateful.

I don't know. In a case like this, 'nothing' is looking pretty damn good.

It'll also be nice to still have lipstick after her house is bombed, because I'm pretty sure that the gift was meant to be a lipstick case. The metal ones tend to be intricately designed and I could see someone thinking one would make a good gift.

Or they meant to get them tampon cases because they are loony

I've honestly never heard of metal tampon cases, which is why I posted what I did. Excuse me everyone for pointing out the op could've been mistaken.

Hmm could it be you? No, no, that's not right. Ohh is it Justin Bieber and his sister? That must be it!

I don't get it.

Probably thought he'd get thumbed up for insulting Justin Bieber...
nycwrestler 17
Yeah, that was the plan

Metal? Shouldn't it be made of plastic?

It's a tampon case.. A metal tampon is just.. Well I'm not a girl but I would imagine it would hurt a bit.

9, You're joking, right?

Oh. Well that clears that up, then.

Yes, this is Dog.

Wouldn't a metal tampon be useless anyway? I can't see it being very absorbing. (And yes, I did read OP said she got a case. I'm just responding to the comment above mine.)
SpicyDuck 22
You guys do realize that it's a case, and not an applicator. A case...like for storing in your purse...last I checked you don't shove cases up there.

Oh my 55, you'll be surprised at what some people do. The word 'fetish' exists for a reason.

It must be a way to give you your undercover mission. Oh, wait! You're no James Bond!!

It's probably a cigar case,not a tampon case.
