G Nome has very kindly drawn my attention to the fact that my user name reminds her of feminine hygiene products. By this I presume she means tampons or sanitary pads. A keeper perhaps?
I guess I need some feedback from the more delicate souls among you who have refrained from sharing with me the implications of my user name.
I am of course (anything to keep G Nome happy :rolleyes:) considering changing my name.
I am particularly taken with the idea of something along the lines of Bloody Tampon or Decaying Menses. I mean why tiptoe around when I could be really in your face and down and dirty about it?
It actually makes me think of acidophilus–you know, healthy intestinal flora! Good bacteria! (There may be a brand named Primaflora and that’s why it makes me think that, but I couldn’t swear to it.)
So maybe you could change your name to Healthy Intestinal Bacteria.
Where I went to college, we have a large modern art sculpture spanning a major walkway which consists of several tubes painted bright red. A picture of it is here.
Although the artist named it “Covenant” it is universally known around campus as “Dueling Tampons.”
I LOVE Dorothy Dunnett, and have had a crush on Niccolo since I was 13, but that’s neither here nor there.
G.Nome’s name makes me think not of genetics but of a little garden Gnome, dancing and capering and emitting high-pitched giggles. A sort of female Rumpelstiltskin.
Primaflora, have you considered Sister Margaretta of the Festering Wound as a user name? I think it has a nice ring.

Thanks guys! I am really inspired here. Yep Primaflora is from the House of Niccolo. Anyone else read Gemini? I just finished it yesterday. I’m a Lymond woman myself, he can have my heart in a blackberry pie any time.
I am toying with the idea of using Menses? You’re soaking in it as my sigline
And I will work harder on sending G Nome to coventry. I just come over all patriotic when she misrepresents NZ
There’s something wrong here, you make me sick. I used the phrase “feminine hygiene products” because I knew I’m not welcome here and a lot of my stuff has caused friction. But my White roots thread was closed. Why? Those camp comments from Coldfire on down were hilarious. No squelching thread has ever been closed but something that intended to discuss a valid women’s issue has been. You are not worthy. An old European woman with long straight loose grey hair is thought of in bag lady terms whereas an Indian or Asian woman is not. You know that. I watched my grandmother spend half of her pension every few weeks on perms trying to keep herself looking “respectable”. There. Does that seem odd, unnecessary, embarrassing and impenetrable? Well, so does a lot of your stuff to me.
If Primaflora really is a New Zealander she’ll know that advertisements for Prima sanitary equipment are on television all the time. Supermarkets are full of it.
I wish so much Jesus Christ, Son of God would come back. He’s was so worth the time of checking in here. How many more reasons are there I ask myself? A few, I suppose, getting less. Coventry, Primaflora? Sounds good to me. Anywhere I don’t have to confront your two-faced, greedy, overfed, overpaid, would be-educated, slimy and suspect antipodean personality is all right by me.
