I know men are supposed to spontaneously combust whenever we see, hear, or think about feminine hygiene, but it's worth the risk to make you aware of my favorite new invention: the Tampon Stun Gun.

"Ladies can replace that monthly period with an exclamation mark as feminine hygiene goes lethal with The Pink Stinger, a stun gun creatively disguised as a tampon...except for the buttons, prods and high voltage. This weapon of mass absorption aims to target a niche market consumer, that being the tampon wielding women who desire private and discreet security in a friendly familiar package."

The sleek, elegant design creates a soothing, modern atheistic, coupled with the raw, yet effortless functionality, makes this a truly stylish option for the self-defense enthusiast.

Just kidding, this is lame. Assuming the mugger was willing to wait around for you dig through your purse for a "tampon," there's no way he'd let you touch him with it -- even if he thought it wouldn't zap the crap out of him. Plus, you know someone is going to use this like a normal tampon and get a very uncomfortable surprise.
