Bit of a sad one ...
I was in the Ladies a while back with my two wee girls. A lady in her late thirties(?) turned away from the fanny pad dispenser, somewhat distraught. At first I thought she didn't have the right change, but I soon noticed that the coin mechanism had been vandalised. Fuckers.

"Hang on a minute." I said to her cheerily, "I've got something here." And fished about in my purse for some unmentionable necessities. She thanked me quietly as I handed them over and suddenly the penny dropped. Unexpected period, lady in her late thirties.

As she passed me, I touched her elbow and said "I'm so sorry." Mistake. She was just about keeping it together until I said that.

what does this mean?
I dont get it at all.

However, when i was about 8 me and my mateS found a tampax machine ripped clean from the ladies toilet wall at the local community centre and dumped on the football pitch.

at first i didnt want to touch the glossy boxes incase i left incriminating fingerprint evidence. But then my friends started shooting their magical fluffy white rip cord powered space rockets. It was great.

I bet you scared the bejeebus out of your two girls.
You touched another woman's elbow, said sorry, and you made her burst into tears.

I'll bet they were well-behaved after that.

P.s., I don't think you said the wrong thing.

So had she lost the baby, or started her menopause early
or was just being a blubbering wailing mardy bint like all you women are once the flow starts?
