I went to the movies this past weekend and ended up having to stand in line for a ticket for about 50 minutes. Which wasn’t a problem since the movie I saw wasn’t going to start for another 2 hours. There were probably 250 people in line. I was people watching, but my attention was continually drawn to the woman in front of me, who was wearing khakis and was continually grabbing her ass, as if trying to adjust her underwear.
Then, that’s when I noticed it.
A lump, sliding down her right pant leg.
Slowly it dropped, stopping every now and then as she shifted her feet.
Surely, I thought to myself, it couldn’t be… Naw, no way, not THAT.
But what other explanation was there?
I watched, fascinated, as the lump continued it’s journey, until finally it appeared at the bottom of her pants, fell onto her right shoe and then plopped onto the floor, where it lay, slowly oozing blood.
A Maxi-Pad.
(Pauses to allow Dopers to barf, clean computer screen of whatever drink they have spit all over it, etc.)
It is without a doubt the single grossest thing I’ve seen in 3 years.
And then the stench hit me. Apparently it was a “scented” Maxi-Pad. Well, when combined with the smell of the blood and other excretions, the smell was enough to cause your gums to bleed.
And yes, the woman ended up in the same theater with me, but I sat far away from her.
