yeah, I am going to keep it short and neat. I do not want it to be a thing where I look like any sort of hobo.

basically my beard-spiration is this beard. Roughly. That... short and neat beard. I could not find a picture of this kind of beard anywhere else, so, sorry steve carrell.

Ooh, Catie del Vaca was a spectacular barfer for her first few months.  One night she got me in a perfect diagonal line across my dark blue t-shirt.  It looked like I was wearing a sash.

Yeah, we had one of those toilet-seat-holder-closers. The dumbest thing we own, in my opinion, is this big padded thingy you can put in the seat of a grocery cart, then put your kid in it.

Because a grocery cart seat is SO fuck*ng FILTHY OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

Still not as stupid as a "wipe warmer".

for God's sake.

I hear that.  Criminy, hold it between your hands for a bit, it'll be fine.  Unless you live in a fuckin' igloo, you do not need a wipe warmer.

I've been using a great shampoo/conditioner set that my mother picked up awhile ago:  it's Herbal Essences's Hello Hydration blue bottles which are scented with orchid and coconut milk.  I like coconut a lot so I think it's the best.  Coconut is very polarizing.

This is part of a line of products where a gay man screams at women for various reasons to get "HAIRAPY!!"  A gay man (even if he is from Sex In The City) screaming at me does not entice me to buy a product.  This is an advertising tactic that just doesn't work for me.

Wait, the Herbal Essences stuff is the source of those Hairapy advertisements? I am concerned. Previously I had been enjoying the new formulation, but now I feel like I'm aiding and abetting a damn bad ad campaign. Le sigh.

I hate paying for stupidity, and I can't help but feel like a jackass whenever I even think of buying a product such as Mentos, so I don't buy them. Isn't it ironic that assholish overpaid advertising execs would spend money on a campaign that make people cringe to buy their effing product? I have not seen the dreaded Hairapy adverts, but they sound atrocious. Why do advertisers think that we're stupid? It's obnoxious.

Based on current evidence it's because they are.

yeah, for real.

The saddest thing: I still always assume that people are smart. I never believe that people fall for shitty advertising, pyramid schemes, etc. and then I realize that if they do fall for them... they can't be as smart as I think. Damn.

that, and the rancid meat thing. goddamn, that bothers me a lot.

I feel that way about religion.  I can't understand how so many otherwise intelligent people fail to see through religion.  It seems so obviously false to me, yet...

I've bought Prell on Jough's recommendation, but I think it smells like bubblegum.

Hey, I never recommended it.  I just said it's like dish detergent and always leaves my hair clean.  I get compliments on my hair from people.  Girls like to touch it.  Men wish they had my hair.  Small boys feel fear when they look at it.  Dogs and rabbits run away from it.

Getting my hair clean is the principal reason I shampoo it so if you say it gets your hair clean, that sounds like a recommendation to me.

I didn't say that bubblegum was a bad thing for your hair to smell like.
