Be more supportive! You're a disgrace to the Sisterhood of the Maxed-out Maxi.

Just make her really self-conscious about it.

"Whoa Janet, that's really fucked up. That never happens to me. Have you told your gynecologist? He said it wasn't a big deal? I'd get a second opinion, because that's the most disgusting fucking thing I've ever heard in my life."

Praise be to someone's god for giving me the gift of being born a male and thus not having to be forced into paying monthly dues with my own blood. Hallelujah, hallowed be thy name!

"Its like a crime scene in my pants"

Just be glad you're not a dude and therefore constantly subjected to unsolicited smegma talk.

Haha, I'm just glad I'm not up tight about bodily functions! Talkin about poop is funny! My favorite people are the ones I can talk about gross things with without them going "ugh, stop, I'm so squeamish, I must return to the hothouse from whence this orchid came."

You should "borrow" a pad from her one day.

Then return it with a little thank note.

ForWhomTheBellTolls: Damn, you sort of beat me to it. I was going to suggest that Anon respond to the period talk by going into excessive detail about her digestive problems-right before lunch, if possible.

C'mon guys, if anon wants to be a stick in the mud with poor social skills, let her do her thing. To each their own, ya know.

I worked with a guy who always talked about shit like his itchy asshole and how much his girlfriend came (hopefully these weren't simultaneous occurrences.) I didn't have a previously developed bond with him because he was the quintessential tool. Listening to his admissions was excruciating because it was irritating and irrelevant, so I can't blame anon for being fed up with this shit. Definitely sounds like they aren't BFF's, so there's no need to hear about this lady's leakage and spotting amirite? It doesn't make anyone that much cooler or funnier just because they over share their shit to people who probably shouldn't be hearing it in the first place.

Sorry, but your coworker sounds hilarious.

She will be there for you as you figure out your diarreah situation.

Don't go hating on her just yet Miss Bottom Sauce.

The way that this reads to me is that the writer had diarrhea coming from her vagina, and I cannot express in words how much this horrifies me.

When did an anus become a vagina?

A couple of months ago or so I realized it's not safe to say "good morning" to coworkers anymore because the days of being able to count on a simple "good morning" back are gone. I learned to stop saying "How are you?" when greeting or being greeted by coworkers at least a year ago when I noticed that less people were answering with "fine" and more were responding by telling me what was not fine with their health, relative(s), spouse, signficant other, pet, relationships with coworkers and/or bosses, the reason they didn't get enough sleep last night, etc. I've found that I can avoid this by walking a little faster than I need to and giving no more than a flash of eye contact and a little smile or a semi-whispered "hey" when encountering other people as I walk through the workplace or go into the breakroom to get coffee.

I'm empathetic enough to realize that people have problems and talking about said problems can be theraputic, but isn't that what family and friends are for? I don't want to come across as cold or antisocial at work, but all of this casual oversharing about everything from the trivial to the tragic from coworkers that don't have relationships outside of work seems like a weird, somewhat new thing.

This IA has made me wonder if there's a sociological explanation for why so many people have lost or never had a sense of social boundaries at work. I know it's not a generational thing because I'm middle-aged and have been annoyed by this from plenty of coworkers of all age groups. Maybe a little less from the older ones though.

pull out your Diva Cup and chuck it at her
