That's Not the Ticket

Driving home the other day I spotted a billboard for “Menopause, the Musical.” So, here’s my feeling on this: if menopause is so much fun, why do they have to make a musical about it? It’s like all those “You’re a Young Lady Now” filmstrips pushing Kotex pads that they used to show back in the dinosaur age in elementary school. Another words, I think they doth protest too much.

So listen up, big shot producers. Here are some other entertainment extravaganzas that the ticket-buying public is not anxious to part with their hard-earned cash to see:

“Loving Those Labor Pains: A Lifetime Movie”

“Don’t Cramp My Style: The Period Podcast”

“Those Terrific Temper Tantrums: The TV Show”

"You Are So Ruining My Life: The Sweet 16 Soap Opera"

“What Did I Come into This Room Again For? A Senior Moments Musical”

PS: What couldn't they pay you to see?

I'm going for the labor and cramp one. What WILL they think of next?

"15 Loathsome Loads of Laundry - the Film" I don't think I'd pay to see that. What about that new show I've seen advertised, "Notes from the Underbelly" or something like that. A sit-com show based just on pregnancy. Yeah, something about living it, doesn't make it that entertaining! Thanks for the cute ideas!
