Granted, they could be exaggerating for all I knew, since mine are never that bad.<br /><br />As for saying it outright, "Ugh, my uterus"? Personally I took it in stride as being just part of the bluntness that IS characteristic of xkcd characters. "We made a baby!"<br /><br />But doubtless that comic sucked too.<br /><br />Ah well.

Well I get the reason WHY but do we really need to keep emphasizing that? We get it, some women say things like that (although most of the girls I've dated or been friends with have been more modest about it, or they have never had cramps so I can't vouch for hearing this statement or similar) but more on to the point.<br /><br />Ahem... I sincerely hope that the guy who made the quip about the "period hertz" says things like that on a daily basis and she likes him for that, because if I or my friends (who are all as nerdy/quirky if not more so than Randall displays in his comics) pulled a stunt like that, I'd be in the dog house (not literally, I'm not married) for a good week or so, and have a nice red mark on my face, or a bloody nose, so I'm of the opinion that while "stupid uterus" isn't as contrived or make-believe as Carl said but I'm still thinking that the pun was totally uncalled for.Camhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18388252234713990053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-42689851784582999322009-08-24T21:09:41.122-07:002009-08-24T21:09:41.122-07:00Just want to pop in several months late and say th...Just want to pop in several months late and say that I've known several women who regularly have periods that cause them so much pain, they are rendered immobile.

(The other reason being that I found it quite obvious that the female character was off-page because she was on the can- it wouldn't make sense for Randall to suddenly start drawing in architecture only to not include her, being behind a bathroom door and all.)<br /><br />Back to weird syntax structures. Now, I'm a human woman, English as a first language, and your esteemed Carl can no doubt inform you that I possess at least a moderate level of intelligence as we attend the same university and surely a lack of writing ability would have doomed me here long ago. Granted, I do have my verbal quirks, like us all. <br /><br />So, I went to gmail, typed in "uterus" to the search box, and these are the phrases I have used in the past few years with that word in them.<br /><br />"-hissed whisper- my uterus is trying to kill me, help."<br />"yeah, one's uterus tearing out its own lining once a month is real pleasant."<br />" -scowls- tell me about college, get my mind off my stupid, self-destructing uterus."<br /><br />So, I guess my vote's in with the "that's a reasonable thing to say" crowd. <br /><br />Nevertheless, I found the math joke unnecessary, solely because I didn't get it.
