    When all is said & done, neither do I. It's just that to me Fakey Mirage is the embodiment of how false "attractiveness" has ruined pop music. Which certainly started long before she was born, it's just that she is so incredibly...... cartoonishly fake. If you sat her in an intense heat long enough she'd turn into a skin bag filled with silicone & bones.

    Maybe it goes back when I was a kid developing a sense what made women attractive, plastice surgery was around, but it wasn't common, at least not boob jobs and certainly not fake asses. I do remember Cher getting breast implants (pretty small by todays standards), and also Jane Fonda getting a boob job.

    Mentioning JF, I actually found the popularity of her fitness books & vids amusing since a couple prominent parts of her body weren't exactly real. "You can have a body like mine by following my workout routines, and by having plastic surgery."

    I have to reboot to Windows to install or even use this free Photshop Plugin. Ugh. #FirstWorldProblems
    (this is the only place you will see me use the pound sign with words next to it, and you can see how "serious" my use is here)

    I hate the little half-moon shaped ice non-cubes the the refrigerator makes.
    They conform to the shape of the glass thereby keeping the lemonade from flowing into my mouth. Instead it flows out the corners of my mouth and onto my shirt.

    There is this one person at my place of employment that is a shit. I want to puk when I see her.
    When someone uses there position to get many people in trouble, because she didn't like someone's response in a training, which set her off into a temper tantrum, doesn't belong in the position. :mad:

    First time out on my bike in a long time and I fell. Hit my pedal hard on my shin; I have two large bruises and a gash lower down on my ankle. It was worth it, though.

    Ugh, I'm tired of bruises. After my unassisted move out of the apartment in the LC, I had lost count at 20ish. I can't wear shorter skirts or shorts in public right now as there are no fewer than 6 shin bruises per leg, knees are a hot mess, too. My arms and hands are only nearly as spectacular.

    My ENTJ is flaring up. Not being in the classroom means I'm short on people to boss around. It sucks.

    Tully, I wouldn't let anyone touch my stereo, I have too much invested in it. Plus, it's my fucking house and that's probably the most important thing. A while back I bought a very solid but horribly mistreated table and six chairs. The chairs were filthy. But I have two four year old girls that keep spilling on them, so I haven't been interested in dealing with the stains. So my sister is visiting, and I find her trying to clean the suede napped cloth with a dish towel and shaving cream. "Because it's basically soap". While I was looking for stuff to clean the chairs properly, I put the shaving cream in my pocket. Because she was trying to keep going after I told her to stop. I did show her how to clean the material properly by demonstrating on a few chairs. Soft bristle brush, oxyclean in hot water, a wet dry vac, and a spritz bottle with plain water to rinse out the oxyclean solution. And then under a fan to dry the chairs.

    I'd never heard of cleaning furniture with shaving cream. Looking it up, I can really only find it on those "tip" websites, plus a couple I usually trust, but I can undoubtedly say that using OxiClean is a better method.

    And if there are grease stains, I can almost guarantee that Dawn dish soap will go sooo much further than shaving cream.

    Really, I could pretty much clean a whole house with just Dawn and OxiClean.

    My only concern would be rinsing dawn out thoroughly enough to not leave a residue. But it is effective on grease. When I detailed car interiors I would mix oxyclean with a bit of purple power. That and a scrub brush worked very well.

    That t.v. show was terrible. Completely contrived to the point where they need to download software off of a passenger jet to keep other planes from crashing. Instead of simply landing the plane, they have the pilot fly eight feet off the runway so the copilot can climb down the landing gear to hold out an Ethernet cable so the waitress can plug it into the laptop that she's holding while standing on the passenger seat of a Ferrari 458 Italia that they stole because it could drive at 200 mph under the jet.
    then the 197 iq genius throws the car into a sideways skid to avoid crashing into the barrier at the end of the runway rather than use the really sophisticated anti lock brakes. Because he's a genius but he doesn't realize that sliding friction is less grippy than threshold friction as applied by abs.
    Fucking horrible.
