PMS Buddy - don't get caught using this site
I struggled briefly with whether or not to write a post about PMS Buddy, due to the fact that it could possibly offend some people. But I'm not here to tell you you should support or use it, or that you shouldn't - I'm just saying, "hey, look at this."PMS Buddy is a website with a cute slogan and a simple goal. The slogan, "saving relationships, one month at a time!" refers to PMS Buddy's only function: to remind you when significant women in your life might be experiencing PMS. Used appropriately, i.e. to remind you to be extra understanding (not condescending) of any abnormal behavior exhibited by the women in your life. They also suggest that the site could be a useful resource for women wishing to help the men in their life understand why they seem to get unreasonably intense for seemingly no reason at all, without having to have an uncomfortable discussion with them every month.
While I can't say that I use it, I can certainly see how some people might want to. Or not. I mean, if it offends you, I think it's terrible too. And if you like the idea, yeah, it's pretty cool. Just tell me what you want to hear, okay?
But the one thing I can't understand is how or why you might want to install a PMSBuddy Facebook App (they have one). "Hey friends and family, I track someone's PMS!" Uh, no thanks.

Im actually surprised its taken this long for someone to come out with something like this. It might be alittle crude but hey I can see its uses. Might actually counteract a few fights.

can you track multiple people, like track your wife, your girlfriend, and your boss?

It's a good revenge to ex's on facebook keeping it on the news feed when it's going to happen.

No worries. As a woman I got a kick out of this post! My husband is always reluctant to ask me - after I've had an outburst - when my cycle is due. He's so sweet, but I've bitten his head of with even his subtle hints. ;)

Having been married for over 10 years, I made it a point to know here "due date" early on to avoid threats to my life.

"Just tell me what you want to hear, okay?"
How about growing a backbone and making a choice. You can't vote for McCain and Oboma...
