I shave in the bath, I shave with the hairs and then against the hairs as per Choco's advice.

when I shave my face I go with the hairs two, maybe three or four times before going against the hairs

also, I rinse off the razor beetween every stroke

a thin shaving-cream-and-awater lather on my face helps for the subsequent shaves

Ellie · June 2010

So, it was the weirdest break up I have ever had.

It was like Frasier and Lilith discussing feelings. It was clinical. On both sides. He was exercising his logical engineering brain, and I was tapping into my interpersonal relations course knowledge.

Why are people getting jealous over podly's friend having a hot girlfriend.

Unless pictures were posted, did I miss the pictures?

it's not that she's hot.

it's that she does gender-transgressive and bdsm-inspired photography

if i think about "SHIT I WANT TO DO WITH MY LIFE" that's a pretty big chunk of it

this is my version of envy for all you guys oohing and aahing over mr. vp

so what's stopping you?

stuff. not just a lack of commitment (doing better on that then I have in years) but just displacement and stuff and ugh. now I just feel terrible.

sorry for moping [chat]

HELP.

I am supposed to be losing weight but I want a pizza so badly. Piled high with delicious ham and pineapple. I need to stop myself from ordering, but there are no good foods in my home.

choco's been giving you bad advice because painful, irritable razor burn is one of his major sexual turn ons

Face-to-face it would make sense to use first names conversationally if it's not a professional setting.

Leaving a voicemail or email or something, one would still use the full name as you don't want to assume the other person only knows one person with your first name.

well yeah but I mean first name only versus first+last

I'm thinking that people would not use last names here, not until they know each other better, but I'm not sure

Johannen · June 2010

If you're going to shave your junk, male or female junk, for the first few times absolutely always have running water and shave with the hairs.

I lost 40lbs and ate pizza once a week pretty much the whole time

I hate green peppers. I once got the most severe food poisoning from a pepper sandwich at Trader Joe's that I couldn't keep anything down for 3 days. I was almost hospitalized.

Wait a minute...

And Arivia, as long as you are working towards your goals then there's nothing to beat yourself up for.

Oh hell no, unless you have a shower in the bath and you don't mean lying underwater and shaving. Having hairs floating up in a bath and the water itself distorting the view and using the razor underwater and not being able to keep shaving foam or what have you on your bits is wrong, just pure wrong.

Corbius · June 2010

Sarksus if you want to lead [chat] down this path of "God pineapple on pizza is so terrible abloo bloo bloo" I will break out my Korean pizza pictures again.

Evil Multifarious · June 2010

hawaiian pizza is awful

it's not as bad as korean pizza

it's also not as bad as genocide

This was the first time that things really came to this sort of a head and I truly became discontent. I think I had either been complacent because I know he's not in the best place and figured he would come around, or because I felt I couldn't do better.

I don't think I can do better, to be honest. I think it will be years before I find another man dumb enough to be in a relationship with me. Yes, I know if I display this attitude, that will be true. But if you can't engage in a self-hate fest online where no one can see that face you make when you're trying not to cry, then where can you?

I'll be putting on my "confident single lady" face Thursday and will party to excess clear through Sunday. I will be okay. Or at least look the part.
