Don, I don’t think it is coffee aggression at all; it’s anxiety and accumulative stress caused by the shoe thread. All that talk about shoe shopping, 500 pairs, which color goes with whatever, sensitivity training, comfort, fashion, feminine side, shoe size, heels, Shoe-a-holic, shoe support group, shoe phantom, overhead hanging shoes, well, you get the picture. x;-)
As Don asked, what is an "inactive pill row?" Inquiring minds want to know, Cinderella. x:-) Besides, you know, we're just dumb guys who can't figger anythung out, y'know, da yup-yup-yup... x;-)
>I'm guilty of the "cut the crap or take a hike" >comment. What can I say? Next week is the >"inactive" pill row for me....... xflash
This is how dense I am today: I had to read the whole flippin' thread to figure out what you meant. I actually thought "inactive row" had something to do with the sale racks for shoes - styles that have become inactive therefore have drastically reduced prices. I wasn't sure where "pill" came in.
Lord Don: Just for the hell of it, I decided to check the Forum today. Behold, he that smarts when an itsy bitsy thread of his is deleted, has the amazing audacity to suggest that we need coffee. Really??
If you believe that every woman HR person has somehow been infected with that awesome Jersey Girl attitude, then all I can say is .......
My, my, look at the hub bub going on. All started by Don D - imagine that! Cup of coffee indeed - give me an old fashioned bucket of tar and bag of feathers.
What's an 'INACTIVE PILL ROW'? Is that some kind of sexist remark? This thread was really a test. It was created knowing Ritaanz was not at work and that she was the ultimate Jersey Girl Personality. The boys knew she would bust up in here with a baseball bat in one hand and concrete boots from Jersey in the other. But she's really a cream-puff-softie.
Dear Don: Did I pass your test? I did say thank you.
Ahhhhhhh the "inactive pill row".... think about it. There are some members of the female species that use birth control pills. Do I need to go further?
Well, I for one am not a gynocologist, although I do have some undergraduate training. How would we know what an inactive pill row is? Someone did explain it to me 'offline'. This just all helps me prove my original point which is addressed in the box way up there at the top. And to take the discussion one step further, if a man were to take such prescriptions, he could do perfectly well without an inactive pill row. A man could follow the instructions "Take one daily for 21 days, then skip 7 days".

Thanks to Don, now I've figured it out. So, a woman's prescription is 25% placebo? Does that mean the drug is 25% less? Or are you paying good money for a sugar pill? Lose the pills, buy only what you need and put in Tic Tacs where the "inactive" row should be. x;-)
It's not a placebo - a placebo is an inactive pill that you think is an active drug of some sort and thus "feel" the effects of the "drug" because of the power of suggestion. The inactive pill row is simply sugar pills - place holders if you will - so that a woman can continue to take her birth control pills everyday but still have a break from the hormones thus allowing menstruation. It is a safety net so that one does not lose track of days or pills. You take one everyday - simple to remember. Not every birth control pill is like this, but most are.
NOW YOU KIDS BE QUIET I HAVE A MASSIVE HEADACHE! x:'(
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-04-04 AT 02:23PM (CST)[/font][br][br]We're talking about female coffee-aggression here, not menstruation; although my research may link the two, as most research before me has done. And while I had no intention of blurting out information about birth control devices or placebos, I do fondly recall that my mother always said the very best birth control device cost only five cents. It was a nickel placed between the knees and held firmly in place through the entire evening. There's not a recorded incidence of a single rabbit ever dying when this method was practiced.
No. Only if the velocity of the parting knees would spin the nickel at a trajectory and speed equal to 45 degrees at 200 miles per hour, thereby signaling the 'nickel-holders' true need. Then she would be to blame. Leslie, don't be difficult. I'm trying to make a point here.
