Periods are the probably the most annoying part of being a woman. They always start unexpectedly and they mess up your emotions while somehow managing to ruin the one pair of panties you really love.

At least there's a silver lining: half of the world gets to experience the same struggle each month, so we're all sisters in this matter. Bored Panda collected some of the funniest posts from Tumblr and Twitter where women share their period horror stories or general thoughts on why periods are truly the satan's sacrificial waterfalls. Be sure to upvote the ones you liked best and share your own stories!

    The average amount of blood lost during a period is 30-40 millilitres (ml) (NHS). So at 35ml avg. times 480 thats 16.8L (4.4 gallons) of blood in a lifetime.

Meanwhile all the girls are watching surgeons preform operations on tv while we eat & fix all the bloody injuries- bc the boys are busy cringing at the sight. So funny
