This isn't really funny, but it is dumb. When I was about 10, I didn't have my period yet. So I would wonder what tampons were for and what pads were for. I knew it had something to do with periods. I would see commercials for tampons that would say "So comfortable, you can't even feel 'em." So, then I decided pads were like tampons. So I took a pad from my sister and put it on. In my room, I would pretend I was in a commercial and was doing an add for pads, thinking they were exactly like tampons. I was mad because I COULD feel the pad. I was happy once I finally realized how wrong I was during puberty classes!
