I was in the ubiquitous Walgreens yesterday on an unsuccessful hunt for tampons without applicators - apparently American women don’t like to touch themselves - and I came across this glorious branding phenomenon. Unfortunately, I only had my (non -i)phone with me so the image quality is not great but you get the general idea…

I wonder if the inspiration comes from the bloodless quality of virtual warfare - 3D rendering and all. If we shoot the missiles from afar then we don’t have to experience the blood on our hands. Needless to say these ones were not available without applicators.
