Nosebleed

I read someone say that (here or on Reddit) when there was post that Russian soldiers were given tampons to use to stop bleeding.

I searched for history of tampons and that looked like the person was just bullshitting. I think OP probably saw the same comment as me.

Tamponade is what they drink in hell on hot days.

Bonus: absorb some cocaine in it so when you use it, you get a burst of energy!

Tamponade is what they drink in heaven on hot days.

Dollar stores are great for stuff like

also wrapping paper and cheap 3 ring binders.

*There is a good chance they can fix it.

A friend of mine wanted to get their nose fixed but the doctors said that their nose wasn't suitable for the procedure and that it would most likely make it worse instead of better. They mostly grew out of it naturally though, going from multiple times a day as a teen to less than once per month as an adult.

Recently saw an army training video and they used tampons as tinder for campfires. I wonder when they started doing that.

They were invented to plug bullet wounds in wartime after all, until nurses noticed they had other practical uses as well.

Don’t quote me on that though, I don’t remember where I read that.

Instructions unclear sat down and did my taxes instead of getting energy

I thought it was what vampires drank on a hot day.

A vampire walks into a bar. The bartender asks if he'd like some blood. "Just hot water, please," the vampire responds. The bartender raise an eyebrow, but goes to get the hot water. When he places the mug in front of the vampire, he says, "I thought you were a vampire. Why order hot water?" The vampire pulls a tampon out of his bag and says, "I'm having tea."

You're welcome.

Is that like a bloody Mary?

When you tell this joke in person, the crappy vampire accent is a must.

Tampons have been used to manage menstruation for thousands of years. In the 1800s they first started trying to used them for bullet wounds. So they weren't invented for bullet wounds.

Also, just to be clear, don't stick a tampon in a bullet wound. They are not at all an effective dressing. In all cases you are far better off just holding a wad of gauze or similar over the wound and applying pressure. A tampon isn't large enough and doesn't go deep enough to do any good as packing.

And if you squeeze it into a glass it's called a kool-ade

What a horrible day to be able to read.

Be careful of the oxymetazoline sprays. If used for longer periods of time (more than three days) they can get you addicted to them. This is mostly true for people using them for stuffy noses, but getting used to using them is what puts people at risk. It's an addiction that's actually quite common but not very often talked about, because it's often not recognised as an addiction.

Great, affordable medicine for the occasional nose issue, but it comes with risks people tend to ignore until it's too late and you're buying bags of the stuff just to get through the week.
