The Idiot Of The Month

(My female friends and I are discussing our period cramps, for some reason. My group is composed of both boys and girls.)

Girl: “I have the worst cramps ever! It feels like I’m literally dying!”

Girl #2: “Wow, that must suck! I don’t get many cramps at all!”

Boy: “I don’t either!” *referring to stomachaches*

Me: “Err… you do know what they’re talking about, right? It’s not stomach pains.”

Boy: “Then what is it?”

Me: “Period cramps…”

Boy: “What’s a period?”

(I’m completely in shock, as we are halfway through high school and no one has bothered to tell him.)

Me: “Do you have a sister?” *wondering if he has someone that might explain it to him instead of me*

Boy: “Yeah.”

Me: “Well, like… girls bleed… from a certain spot… when they become a certain age… because—”

Boy: “SOMEONE’S GOING TO HURT MY SISTER?! I’LL KILL THEM!”

Me: “Just… forget about it.”
