leuke brief aan maandverband fabrikant..

Hij staat ook al in een ander toppic, maar vind hem zelf zo leuk :angel: :wink: Na aanleiding van een gesprek met mijn man over het misleidende reclame toppic(in discussie) ging het over maandverband.



Hij werkt op het hoofdkantoor van een producent van oa hiervan.

Daar had ie gehoord over deze brief op internet.(geschreven door een vrouw in Amerika)



Zij hadden weer iets nieuws, leuke slogans op het plakstripje :roll: 8)

Oa ā€œHave a happy periodā€ het mag duidelijk zijn dat de brief schrijfster hier anders over dacht :mrgreen:

(wel in het engels)



This is an actual letter from an Austin woman sent to American company Prctor and Gmble regarding their feminine products. She really gets rolling after the first paragraph. Itā€™s PC Magazineā€™s 2007 editorsā€™ choice for best webmail-award-winning letter.





Dear Mr. Thatcher,



I have been a loyal user of your ā€˜Alwaysā€™ maxi pads for over 20 years and I appreciate many of their features. Why, without the LeakGuard Core or Dri-Weave absorbency, Iā€™d probably never go horseback riding or salsa dancing, and Iā€™d certainly steer clear of running up and down the beach in tight, white shorts. But my favorite feature has to be your revolutionary Flexi-Wings. Kudos on being the only company smart enough to realize how crucial it is that maxi pads be aerodynamic. I canā€™t tell you how safe and secure I feel each month knowing thereā€™s a little F-16 in my pants.



Have you ever had a menstrual period, Mr. Thatcher? Ever suffered from the curseā€™? Iā€™m guessing you havenā€™t. Well, my time of the month is starting right now. As I type, I can already feel hormonal forces violently surging through my body. Just a few minutes from now, my body will adjust and Iā€™ll be transformed into what my husband likes to call ā€˜an inbred hillbilly with knife skills.ā€™ Isnā€™t the human body amazing?



As Brand Manager in the Feminine-Hygiene Division, youā€™ve no doubt seen quite a bit of research on what exactly happens during your customers monthly visits from ā€˜Aunt Floā€™. Therefore, you must know about the bloating, puffiness, and cramping we endure, and about our intense mood swings, crying jags, and out-of-control behavior. You surely realize itā€™s a tough time for most women. In fact, only last week, my friend Jennifer fought the violent urge to shove her boyfriendā€™s testicles into a George Foreman Grill just because he told her he thought Greyā€™s Anatomy was written by drunken chimps. Crazy!



The point is, sir, you of all people must realize that America is just crawling with homicidal maniacs in Capri pantsā€¦ Which brings me to the reason for my letter. Last month, while in the throes of cramping so painful I wanted to reach inside my body and yank out my uterus, I opened an Always maxi-pad, and there, printed on the adhesive backing, were these words: ā€˜Have a Happy Period.ā€™



Are you fuing kidding me? What I mean is, does any part of your tiny middle-manager brain really think happiness - actual smiling, laughing happiness is possible during a menstrual period? Did anything mentioned above sound the least bit pleasurable? Well, did it, James? FYI, unless youā€™re some kind of sick S&M freak girl, there will never be anything ā€˜happyā€™ about a day in which you have to jack yourself up on Motrin and Kahlua and lock yourself in your house just so you donā€™t march down to the local Walgreenā€™s armed with a hunting rifle and a sketchy plan to end your life in a blaze of glory.



For the love of God, pull your head out, man! If you just have to slap a moronic message on a maxi pad, wouldnā€™t it make more sense to say something thatā€™s actually pertinent, like ā€˜Put down the Hammerā€™ or ā€˜Vehicular Manslaughter is Wrongā€™, or are you just picking on us?



Sir, please inform your Accounting Department that, effective immediately, there will be an $8 drop in monthly profits, for I have chosen to take my maxi-pad business elsewhere. And though I will certainly miss your Flex-Wings, I will not for one minute miss your brand of condescending bull sh
t. And thatā€™s a promise I will keep. Always.



Best,
