Oh, Apple.
How did you not know this was coming? iPad jokes, via Jezebel:
tjakabon: "It surfs the web AND stops the bleeding."
Gelatobaby: And you can use the giant QWERTY keyboard to get your period on the #iPad!
CarolBlymire: Is #apple making an iPad for light-flow days? Just wondering...
Trish1981: iPad? Really? All I can say is, I'm sticking with Always, bitches.
tremendousnews: So I can say "That chick is on her iPad" and not be called a pig? Thank you Apple.
melissapierce: iPad has changed "the conversation" from how we use tech in context to how we use tech as Kotex. (who named this thing?)
TwittsMcGee: I haven't heard this many period jokes since I was forced to watch The View last month. #iPad
kathycacace: Okay, just one more. The iPad: protecting your data from embarrassing incidents.
Johnpapa: "64 gig iPad will forever be known as the heavy flow model."
From the comments section of "Period Pieces":
lady_justice: Did the prototype come with a belt?
Lymed: Does the Period Tracker app come free?
fauxfruit: If I order this, will my boyfriend and I have to worry if it comes late?
andBegorrah: If you and your friends all buy one, will they sync up?
boston_nj: Meh. I'll wait until they come out with the iDivaCup
morninggloria: Don't wear white jeans while using an iPad, and especially don't use an iPad in front of your crush. You're a teen magazine embarrassing moment waiting to happen.
ms negative the easy-going unicorn: someone needs to make a 'mysterious blue liquid stain on white' wallpaper for this.
LilSpitfire: Later in the year they will be releasing the companion tablet pen, the Ipon.
Vesuvius At Home (I believe in peace, ***): But what if the cute boys see me shopping for one? What if my dad has to take me??
NellMood: It's so beautiful when an electronics company finally becomes a woman...
Cinnamoncanuck: @NellMood: Aunt Flo will be so happy! Reply
soykatrina: Eh, I prefer the CVS brand. A few bucks less but does the same thing...
vlvtjones: So will iffy Wifi coverage be called iSpotting?
morninggloria: Can I get a scented iPad for when my data feels not-so-fresh?
Mary McCarthyite: Everyone, just try to Stay(free) calm and Poise(d). It's Always nice to see a new product on the market. I Depend on Apple to come up with great ideas. Maybe we're taking this out of Kotex.
Lymed: Somebody give the iPad a Red Bull, because it ain't no good without wings.
andBegorrah: Are you there, God? It's me, Marketing.
NellMood: iPads are for 8th graders. I'm waiting for the iTampon, because I prefer to do all my interneting from inside my vagina.
BicSharpie: Hopefully it will help people deal with the 24-hour news cycle.
Re: Oh, Apple.
My phone can do the same thing. And also, make phone calls, and not be Apple.
Yes, I'm an Apple hater.
^that.
plus also, there's this so I can have it in the kitchen. The laptop gets in the way.(No, I will not be watching Star Trek/Wars or whichever this one is on it)
We bought an iPod, and have had nothing but trouble with the device and the software.
Whereas our Microsoft and Linux products just keep chugging along, despite the age of our hardware, and our Android phones have been wonderful in the six-or-so months we've had them. Based on performance, I couldn't recommend Apple.

KNAI @ boston_nj: Meh. I'll wait until they come out with the iDivaCup
