From the people at Tampon Crafts comes this handy projectile device:

Tampon Shooter

"Inspired by marshmallow shooters, this air-powered tampon gun turns your feminine hygiene products into high-flying projectiles. Have a shootout between rival tampon brands, or use it as a fun alternative to paintball. The tampon shooter has a range of 10 to 20 feet depending on your ammo and lung capacity. The matching bandolier lets you carry a full “clip” (i.e., box) of 20 tampons, so you’ll never be caught short in the heat of battle."

This needs to NOT be combined with paintball enthusiasts. Especially not any with red paint.

For a moment there, I thought this was posted by a friend of mine you didn't know. The very first thing I thought was: "I MUST show this to [livejournal.com profile] caprine!!"

Funny, a lot of people seem to have had that thought.

What someone needs to do is rig this with compressed air. Maybe a hairspray w/ ignition system as a propellent, though that *does* lend itself to the "Who lit the fuse on your tampon" jokes........

My first thought: "Tampoon Cannon".
Second thought, Caprine must read this. ;)

Finally! A gender-neutral use for tampons that doesn't involve plugging sucking chest wounds!

And nosebleeds. Can't forget they're good for nosebleeds.

OK, now I have to have a tampon bandolier to wear in the hall costume contest of the next SF con I go to!! ^0^
