The Girls Only Thread

[Courtney]

I agree that Fredericks has some surprisingly cute un-skanky stuff. And it actually seems to be better made too and fall apart less quickly than VS, in my experience. But most of those benefits are mitigated by the idea of actually going into their store and the accompanying headache of pleather, marabou and sparkly/be-dazzled items.

[algunz]

Have any of you tried the American Apparel underwear or bras? The bras are bare bones, perfect for smaller chests and really comfy. The underwear is really comfy too. I love all their clothes!! Even the gold unitards - groovy.

[matildawong]

haha marabou and bedazzlement. Yeah it's not my cup of tea going IN to Fredericks, but it is funny watching the guys that are alone in there trying to pick up something for their girlfriend/wife/lover ...
I like the bras that I get because they have the best support I've found without looking kind of grannyish. It's like I finally found something that fits me after years and years of looking. Oh and they make your cleavage look good.
Can you tell I'm very excited about this?
American Apparel sounds cute, too bad I can't have bare bones bras. But gold unitards....

[chairmenmeow47]

i too hate being the stereotypical bitch on my period, lol.

and fredericks has bomb ass corsets. too bad they're like $60.

[algunz]

and fredericks has bomb ass corsets. too bad they're like $60.

$60 is nothing for a good corset.

[kimery08]

alright ladies, i need to know the going rate for brazilians. im not talking about the cost, im talking about the pain. scale of 1-10, whatd it be? who has had one? who cried? who loves it?
speaking of which, did anyone see that one episode of engaged and underage where this girl had her future mother and sister in law give her one? sick.

[miscorrections]

i too am interested in knowing how much they hurt.

[hawkingvsreeve]

I love this thread.

[kimery08]

brandon, youre not supposed to be in here but please report my last question to foi. she stated that she was only going to read that other thread, i dont believe it, but let her know that i would appreciate her contribution to this thread.

[Courtney]

kimery and miscorrections, check your PMs. yay.

[hawkingvsreeve]

Well, I can contribute a little but to your last question.

It is very painful, especially the first time. Also it depends on how much you plan on having removed. Some girls handle it ok, some pass out. If you make it a regular thing though, it gets better, and I think the hair starts to thin a little. Obviously I can't give you an accurate rating from 1 to 10 being that I have never had hair ripped from my vagina, but I would be willing to bet that it is at the very least an 8. Probably more like 9 and 9.5 though.

[J~$$$]

You have had your entire downstairs area waxed B?

[hawkingvsreeve]

I have not. I've had nothing waxed.

[TomAz]

not your eyebrows?






















oops

[miscorrections]

he's got special empathy powers and a good imagination.

[hawkingvsreeve]

No. Just plucking with the eyebrows.

[J~$$$]

I wax my eyebrows often.

[TomAz]

I saw this episode of Jackass once -- actually the only episode of Jackass I've seen -- where they waxed every bit of hair off this guy's body. Eyebrows down to his toes. Maybe the top of his head too, I don't remember.

[Courtney]

I used to go to this salon in Chelsea in nyc where they did men's waxing. They said that on average the guys cried a lot more than the girls. Especially the straight guys.

[thelastgreatman]

Are you expecting actual manliness from men getting waxed?

Real men love Jesus.

[miscorrections]

real men post in the girls only thread.

[thelastgreatman]

Real men have no time for no skirt.

[captncrzy]

The girl that waxes my eyebrows says that it hurts less and less "down there" every time you get waxed; I guess the skin gets used to it or something.

[thefunkylama]

Haha, you people are crazy.

[ewiggy]

i'm looking for a specific one.

26... not a happy age to be, but thanks.

9 - and this is working off a scale that has dealt with many head injuries, a couple of broken arms, a badly dislocated elbow, a shattered butt bone, and childbirth. But the pain goes away quickly and there is little residual pain - mainly numbness, ache, and itching.

[captncrzy]

Take about 1000mg of Ibprofen beforehand...

[J~$$$]

tee-hee.

[amyzzz]

What I do is get a really thick-bottomed saucepan or pot. The fill the bottom with a thin layer of oil (I really like olive oil for the taste, but use whatever you like). Heat on medium heat for a couple of minutes until the oil is viscous and you can tell that it's hot. Then, add corn kernels. But the trick is that you can only have one layer, so don't add too much. You can shake it a bit so they sit evenly across the bottom of the pot but they should all be touching the bottom. Then, cover the pot and let it sit on medium-low heat until the popping has stopped (or nearly stopped). No stirring should be required, although sometimes I pick up the pot and give it a few quick taps onto the burner with the lid still on, halfway through popping, just to make sure all the unpopped kernels have gotten to the hot bottom.
I'm going to try this tonight. I'm not sure if my pot has a thick enough bottom (tee-hee). We'll see. I also wanted to bump this wonderful thread.

[Courtney]

Hi Amy. If you make it, you can experiment with toppings too. I really like putting furikake on my popcorn.

The administrative assistant for my office at work is wearing sandals today and has a french pedicure. This is something that I never have understood. Why would you intentionally want to make it look like your toenails need to be cut? French manicures are cute, but french pedicures always look sort of icky to me.

[amyzzz]

I like French pedicures, and I've done that on myself.

Also, I will be buttering my popcorn because I aspire to be a fat pig.

edit: oops, should have said fat cow to match my avatar.

[thelastgreatman]

Amy already refused my offer, but would any of you ladies like a new orifice?

[Courtney]

Oh I can't do that stuff myself at all! I don't have a steady enough hand. But it's so cheap to go get them done, and they last for twice as long as when I do them at home. But that's very impressive if you have the skills to do it yourself. Do you buff down your nails and do base coat and everything?

Also fat pig. That's funny. I've seen pictures.

[algunz]

What about a cute, little, fat cow -like your avatar, amyzzz?

[amyzzz]

My thighs are getting too big. I swear. I do like pigs though. I used to have one as a pet until she got too aggressive around my children--had to give Betty away.

Also, I learned a long time ago how to take care of my nails, but yeah, the nail polish usually only lasts a week. I think I'm too much of a perfectionist to let anyone else do my nails. Maybe I'll let someone else do it when I'm old and shaky.

[thelastgreatman]

... free extra orifices, last offer...

[amyzzz]

What about a cute, little, fat cow -like your avatar, amyzzz?
Wouldn't it be cool if cows came in cute little dwarf sizes? I'd get one. I already have a toy dog that I adore.

[algunz]

Like the little horses? And you could walk it around the neighborhood and offer the local kids a suck - to keep their bones strong.

[amyzzz]

I've heard of those mini-horses that are really good guides for the blind.

[miscorrections]

oh my god guide horses are the most adorable things ever. people dress them up and put them in little shoes and it just makes me squeal.

does anyone else have an unhealthy fascination with tiny things? like travel sized toiletries and tiny condiment bottles? if it's miniature it's automatically cute.

except small dogs. i don't like small dogs.

[phoenixsky]

I would very much like to own a giraffe. Preferably full sized, not miniature.

In unrelated news, I just started taking the pill (YAZ) two months ago and I've already skipped a period. I've heard this is normal but it's got a bitch skurred. Any similar experiences ladies?

[thelastgreatman]

Hannah works at a vagina emporium.

Just sayin'.

[miscorrections]

hannah is a classy lady. i don't know where she works, or if she does vend vaginas, but if she does then she does it in the best way possible.

[Courtney]

Caitlin: Can we talk about wig storage? Like, how do you keep it from getting all tangly?

Because I had one from a couple halloweens ago and I pulled it out recently and it was all ick and tangled and I had to throw it away. So because I consider you the wig queen from prior avatardom, I thought you might have a suggestion. Other than to get one of those mannequin head hat-rack things.

Ok thanks.

[algunz]

Keep it in a hair net in it's original box.

[thelastgreatman]

Don't steal potential material from the thread it rightly belongs to, dammit. Give my thread its wig question back!

[Courtney]

Wait what? Ugh. Do you want me to post in your threads or not?

Did you ask about wig storage? I thought you were asking about something else?

Also, have you slept recently Randy? Like at all?

[thelastgreatman]

Nope, not a wink. And yeah sure, I want wig storage talk in there. Ronnie isn't drunk at the moment, I'll take what I can get. I like to let threads flow wherever the fuck they're inclined.

[amyzzz]

What is this, a panty raid? Get out of the Girls' Thread, LGM.

[amyzzz]

Oh, hey Courtney, I would like to report that I tried popping popcorn in a big pot with oil (only regular vegetable sadly enough), and it worked! The layer of corn at the bottom filled the entire pot, and it all popped so fast that I burned a little bit of it because I didn't take the pot off the burner quickly enough. I want to try olive oil, as you suggested, another time. The vegetable oil tasted really heavy (esp. with added butter).

[PineapplePete]

PANTY RAID!!!!!!

http://www.wfu.edu/history/HST_WFU/img/raid2.jpg

[Courtney]

Yay for popcorn. If it seemed heavy maybe try less oil. You don't need to fully coat the kernels or anything. And if you try olive oil, be sure to remember that olive oil has a lower smoking point so you don't want to get it too hot because it will break down quickly.

Mmm I love popcorn.

[TomAz]

http://www.semsk.kz/entert/vallejo/images/1991/panty_raid91.jpg

[amyzzz]

Yeah, I probably used too much oil. I wanted to make sure I had enough, so I overdid it. I was pretty excited that it worked. I watched the movie Little Children whilst munching (great movie, btw, Kate Winslet does not disappoint!).

[kimery08]

that picture makes me laugh.

I wish I had an answer for you, but the sad truth of it all is that the wig I'm wearing in that photo is currently stuffed in the drawer of my nightstand. ;x

[hawkingvsreeve]

Courtney. I will find out for you. More on this story at 11.

[Courtney]

YES. Ok ladies, I hate to say this but I think Brandon might be winning as most helpful Girls Only Thread contributor.

Would this be the couch I plan on sleeping on?

[chrislasf]

Youre ridiculous if you think youre sleeping anywhere other than my bed.

You girls dig this hot chat? I knew it, you little minxes are so dirty. I will get out of your thread now before you gals start making a mess while picturing Hawking/LASF wrestle time.

Funny, but the visual made me think of popcorn!

Yeah, I've done that before in a movie theatre popper when I used to work at the movie theatre. It's not exactly the kind of kettle corn I like, but it's interesting.

[chairmenmeow47]

as far as wigs go, i keep mine in the original netting in a hat box. hat boxes are the shit, they are my left-side-of-the-bed nightstand.

and i've never used a vibrator :x

So your corn cob one is just for show?


ha ha ha, yeah, just a gag gift. considering the number of people who played with that shit at my 21st birthday party, there's no way in hell i'm sticking that up my vag.

kinda funny though, when i was living with my parents a few years ago, there was a flood in the garage. my parents emptied my boxes into a big pile. and RIGHT AT THE TOP OF THE PILE was my corn cob vibrator in it's oh-so-hilarious box. good times.

pic of said box for those who haven't seen it:

http://ivy.aholic.us/gallery/albums/album01/mark_ivy015_sized.jpg

apparently they make cucumbers and such too. my girlfriends had to go to like 3 stores to find this, saying shit like "no, it HAS to be corn", lol.

[algunz]

My friend gave me a water proof rubber duckie vibrator, but my 2 year old daughter has abscounded with it and added it to her collection (of duckies not vibrators). Luckily, I had never used it.

[chairmenmeow47]

ha ha ha ha ha, let's hope she never lends it to a friend.

[kreutz2112]

I like where this thread is going.

[thelastgreatman]

Dad went through a period of about two years where whenever there was an occasion to give one of his friends a gift (particularly birthdays), he would get them a buttplug. We're talking married men in their mid-fifties, and generally he employed this tactic when there was going to be a birthday part at which he could proudly present the gift.

On the best occasion of this prank, his best friend Terry had his mother in attendance at the birthday party. Terry unwittingly opened up the gift right in from of Mrs. Terry, who must have been 80-something at least, and who inquired as to what that strange-looking object was.

Dad, of course, was right by Terry's side with the answer. Terry wouldn't speak to him for several months afterwards, but damn that was funny.

[algunz]

All you boys do is complain about us ladies but you just can't stay away.

And I had her 8 1/2 months premature, in case you wanted to know.

Sorry. I've never tried Yaz. Also, I have no idea what the one birth control pill I used several years ago was called because I didn't used it for very long before I decided I can't take birth control pills (too lazy).

[phoenixsky]

Thanks for the acknowledgment. : )

Yeah, you definitely have to be on top of it when taking the pill. I have my cell phone alarm set to remind me daily so it's not too bad.

As for the artists and cokeheads comment, what exactly has my roommate told you?

[mob roulette]

I will PM you a list of your known associates and what you have allegedly been up to. Gossip is a bitch. After parties too. Tell Mob where it hurts. Daddy'll make it all better.

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought this was the "Hit On Young Girls Thread". My bad.

[phoenixsky]

Damn. I gotta be more careful.

And I'll be 23 next week, Mob. Does that bump me from the "Hit On Young Girls Thread" to the "Let's Be Creepy Old Men Thread"?

Or Chevrolet...


Yeah, I've done that before in a movie theatre popper when I used to work at the movie theatre. It's not exactly the kind of kettle corn I like, but it's interesting.

I like to use these, but I don't know what they are called:
http://www.kitchenemporium.com/kitchenemporium/images/np581b.jpg

But usually I just turn on the air popper and walk away. I make fucking phenomenal popcorn, though. If any of y'unz pass through Eugene any time soon I will prove it.

Is denies the day or phoenixsky a local writer for a local paper?

[chairmenmeow47]

so what type of face products do y'all use?

since i turned the big 2-5 recently, i'm thinking it's time to upgrade, at least my face lotion. the neutrogena oil-free wash i use seems to be fine, but i may upgrade the wash as well. i used to use murad in high school, and i'm thinking about going back to that. it's so damned expensive though. there was this neutrogena stuff i was using for awhile that i can't find. now i need something new. so what do you use?

[kimery08]

i use aveena face wash and toner. i did not like their face lotion at all so i switched to ponds "hydration creme" my face is really dry and that ponds creme is absolutely perfect.
aveena is pretty expensive... im open to suggestions as well.

[amyzzz]

I have bad skin, so I use Proactiv.

[denies the day]

Because you write really good articles about me and my friends. Bwahahahhaha yourself.

Uh oh.

I don't write shit anymore so I'm narrowing down the list of suspects. Mob, you currently live in the PHX?


*sorry, ladies.

[mob roulette]

Uh oh.

I don't write shit anymore so I'm narrowing down the list of suspects. Mob, you currently live in the PHX?


*sorry, ladies.

Yes. Most of the week anyway. But that's another thread. Sorry ladies. Please continue.

What's IN Proactiv, anyway?

[chairmenmeow47]

whoa wait, phoenix? so are y'all talking about bikini lounge downtown? i <3 that place.

my roommate uses proactiv. she used to use acutane. that shit scares me.

i guess i should state my "skin type", i don't have dry skin, i guess it gets a little oily. pretty normal though. i just want to tighten up my pores and prevent smile lines and all that.

speaking of, have any of you seen that commercial with the scary lady talking about how parenthesis don't belong on your face and that you should get some new injection shit? she scares me.

[amyzzz]

It works, okay?

[kimery08]

hows your skin amy? oily? dry?

[algunz]

I use the Aveda system. Expensive, but so worth it.

With all the ways that I abuse my body, I have always tried really hard to take care of my skin.

[SojuGorae]

You guys should totally do an infomercial with Vanessa Williams.

[Hannahrain]

Get OUT.

[amyzzz]

My skin is, and always has been, oily. Although for the very first time this past winter I got dry, itchy, red patches on my cheeks.

Anyone know of a good moisturizer for oily skin? I've tried the Proactiv suncreen/moisturizer and Aveeno suncreen/moisturizer (calming lotion?), but I always ended up itching myself and making it worse.

And yes, guys, please stay out.

Wig storage as follows:

Me: What's the best way to store a wig?

K: On a manican head in a cool dry place.

Me: What if you don't have one?

K: Go buy one. You can get them at a costume shop for $5. Also use a kids brush to comb it out, or something with little resistance. And never use heat, unless it's real human hair.


There you go.

[amyzzz]

You mean mannequin?

[hawkingvsreeve]

Yeah. I wasn't sure, so I went with phonetics.

[phoenixsky]

Wait wait wait, back this thread up a page.

Mob, how the hell do you know me (us)? Who do you work for? What is this?

Shenanigans!

[amyzzz]

Yeah mob. Spill.

[fober]

I'm not a girl but I play one on the internet.

[thelastgreatman]

Ladies, serious question: what's the best way to store a genitalia wig?

[thefunkylama]

In a fire.

[phoenixsky]

+10

[thelastgreatman]

Well... I mean...

I should take it off first, right?

[amyzzz]

Absolutely not.

[thefunkylama]

....Maybe.

[thelastgreatman]

Like a roaring fire is the most dangerous place my wangsaber's ever been inserted.

[thefunkylama]

Get thee out of the girls-only thread.

[lindseyb]

i use proactiv, too. it works very well.

[Courtney]

Thank you for the wig tips Brandon. I'm not sure I care enough to buy a mannequin head, but I'll keep it in mind.

Amy, for facial products, I often use Basis Cleaner Clean face wash, store brand witch hazel as a toner and Oil of Olay SPF moisturizer for sensitive skin. They're cheap and smell nice and don't irritate me. Although right now I'm using Avene Diacneal soap-free gel cleanser which is great for oily, sensitive skin but probably too expensive for me to buy again.

[thelastgreatman]

Dermatologist--Elavil. Believe dat.

[thefunkylama]

I use Origins Checks and Balances face wash. It's nice.

[amyzzz]

I think I used Oil of Olay moisturizer for oily skin for a while (with SPF). I can't remember if I liked it or not, and I don't think I had the itchy dry spots while I was using it.

[thefunkylama]

Amy it sounds like you might be allergic to whatever it is that gives you the dry itchiness. Stop using it.

[Rap/rock Is Life]

whut up hoes? any fine ass bitchez up in here?

[thefunkylama]

OUT.

[lindseyb]

i was just wondering if any of you have felt a strong desire to have a baby. not like, "oh sure, i want a family someday", but more of a physical, instinctive urge to reproduce. for me, my maternal instinct kicked in at 25.

My instinct didn't kick in until after I was married, and even then I fought it for a while. Having a child is the most wonderous thing I have ever done, and it completely changed my life in great was and not so great ways.

[Rap/rock Is Life]

i needz to finds me a juggalette on da pill.

[algunz]

Sweetheart, you're lookin' in the wrong place. There aint no juggalette's here. Just kool ass bitches.

[chairmenmeow47]

i was just wondering if any of you have felt a strong desire to have a baby. not like, "oh sure, i want a family someday", but more of a physical, instinctive urge to reproduce. for me, my maternal instinct kicked in at 25.

how funny, some friends and i were talking about this recently. i do have this urge, though it is a "someday" urge for me since i'm single and all that so maybe it doesn't count. i wonder if anyone is ever truly ready for a child though. the older i get, the scarier it seems. i do have the physical urge to reproduce myself though. though i haven't been in a serious relationship in 2 years, it is something i discuss with my partner. if i don't want to reproduce with them or if they don't want to have a child with me someday, i can't continue the relationship. if for some reason i can't have children, i will definitely adopt someday, but i really want to have my own biological child.

[Courtney]

Lindsey, I know what you mean about that instinctive "need to have babies" thing. I have some friends who say they feel that, although I don't. Not that I dislike kids, but I don't have any hardwired biological clock signals either.

I did once have a very vivid dream that I was pregnant, and instead of feeling gross and panicky about it, in the dream it was a very comforting, happy feeling. It surprised me because I'm really not ready to have kids on any level yet.

[amyzzz]

Amy it sounds like you might be allergic to whatever it is that gives you the dry itchiness. Stop using it.
I'm fine now. It only happened during the winter months.

[Courtney]

Amy, have you tried putting a humidifier in your bedroom?

[amyzzz]

i was just wondering if any of you have felt a strong desire to have a baby. not like, "oh sure, i want a family someday", but more of a physical, instinctive urge to reproduce. for me, my maternal instinct kicked in at 25.
I felt it about then too. Then I got pregnant (at age 26) and absolutely enjoyed the entire experience.

[amyzzz]

Amy, have you tried putting a humidifier in your bedroom?
My mom used to do that when I was sick. I didn't know it could help my skin (if that is what you are saying).

If I am allergic to Proactiv, I'll just kill myself now.

[algunz]

I hated being pregnant. It was never uncomfortable, in fact I had a very easy pregnancy, but I just didn't revel in it like some women do.

There is no right time to have children, just wrong times.

[Courtney]

My mom used to do that when I was sick. I didn't know it could help my skin (if that is what you are saying).

I know a couple people who since moving out to LA say that the air is too dry for them and is making their skin/lips/eyes painfully dry and itchy, so they use humidifiers in their bedrooms to counter the effects of a naturally harsh climate. I guess it's especially good for people who are sensitive and don't want to deal with a lot of topical moisturizers and stuff. But I don't have any personal experience with this.

[amyzzz]

I was going to add that my sister always hated being pregnant. I really had no idea of what to expect, and I never really liked children, so enjoying the whole motherhood/pregnancy thing came as a shock to me. I'm sorry your experience was not good. As I have said in the past, I loved breastfeeding. An extremely bonding experience.

[algunz]

I only breastfed for 4 months. It made me feel trapped. I would actually go through waves of claustrophobia.

[amyzzz]

I can see that. It's hard being stuck constantly with your kid(s).

[algunz]

Yea, and once I stopped breastfeeding the bond really began to begin because I didn't feel obligated. Ironically, everything seemed more natural.

But, every woman's experience is different - that's for damn sure.

[lindseyb]

a girl in my bookclub still nurses her kid, and he's like 3. he runs around and then gets up on her lap and asks for it. it really grosses me out.

[algunz]

Yea, that's just ridiculous. Once they can walk over and ask for it - it's time to stop.

[amyzzz]

Women in developing countries nurse their children until they are age 4 or 5. I don't see a problem with it.

[lindseyb]

that's understandable. what's not is people in first-world countries with plenty of money and nutritious food around doing it.

[amyzzz]

There is really no nutrition involved here, in third world countries or first world countries.

[amyzzz]

Has anyone read Song of Solomon by Toni Morrison? This is definitely an extreme example, and I wouldn't support this, but there is a character dubbed "Milkman" because his mother made him breastfeed her until he was....13 I think.

[roberto73]

One comment and then I'll vacate the premises: seek out Little Britain, Season 2. I know their humor isn't to everyone's liking, but there's a series of sketches about a man in his 20's whose mother still allows him to breastfeed. This is what the last few posts reminded me of.

Okay, now I'll go play with a toolbox or refuse to ask someone for directions or something.

[phoenixsky]

Going back a few posts: I use Oil of Olay SPF for sensitive skin. It's wonderful.

Going back a few pages: WHO THE FUCK IS MOB?!

I finally got my hair cut. And I LOVE it. I don't know what the fuck I was waiting for. I have been released from my hair hell.

In fact, it's funny, quite a few people didn't even notice I got my hair cut, and it was past my shoulders.

I got mine done too on Saturday but my hair girl wouldn't do a drastic change because I'm going through a breakup and she didn't want me coming back to her in two weeks crying about my hair.

Its always a jolly good time picking away at me - ready, set, go!
Sips from her vodka and grape juice.

...why are their photos of men in a girls only thread? I mean, really, guys.

But I like the 'hawk.

[miscorrections]

hi caitlin! you must be my drinking buddy tonight.

[Caitlin]

hi caitlin! you must be my drinking buddy tonight.

Hi! I'd love nothing more, what are you having?

[miscorrections]

tequila. cuervo citrico, to be specific.

[Caitlin]

tequila. cuervo citrico, to be specific.

Ahhh, tequila. Fantastic. I almost sprung for the cuervo myself, but I'm a sucker for vodka. I would have liked to get all the fixings for some margaritas, but that can rack up a pretty price tag. Cointreau alone is $22 for the smallest bottle, absolutely ridiculous.

[miscorrections]

i can make a ghetto margarita right now, but margaritas by yourself are kind of sad. they're a party drink.

you know, i don't really like tequila as a mixer or in cocktails. i think it should stay in the realm of shots.

[mountmccabe]

If I were allowed to post here I'd say that I like tequila - much like whiskey - best as a sipping drink. If the tequila's not good enough to sip it's not worthwhile and it would've been better to go with something else.

But I'm not actually going to say that and I'm going to go away.

[Caitlin]

Yeah, it probably would have been depressing having to make a pitcher for myself. Might as well get straight to the point as the only date I'll be having tonight is with the PS2 and Garden State on DVD.

I've never been a big tequila drinker but I've always thought its the best for shots as it usually goes down really smooth, depending on the brand.

[miscorrections]

i've got a date with a dog show on animal planet. hot.

[Caitlin]

i've got a date with a dog show on animal planet. hot.

Oh really? Well then, where's the remote, I may just have to take a peak at that.

[miscorrections]

i actually really like watching dog shows, god knows why.

[Caitlin]

The contests always piss me off as the dog I want to win never does. I hate poodles, but the fuckers always seem to walk off with the medals.

...Beverly Hills, 90210 is on, fantastic!

[miscorrections]

i have very strong opinions on the dogs. i more or less despise terriers and the teacup/miniature breeds. i favor the hounds and the sporting group, but the hounds NEVER EFFING WIN.

[Caitlin]

Mmmm Austrailian Sheperds are my absolute favorite. They are gorgeous.


http://www.spotlightaussies.com/images/pix/pic_01.jpg

[miscorrections]

i'm partial to the rhodesian ridgebacks and the vislas and the great danes. i like that kind of dog.

[miscorrections]

the hound group won best of show, but the dog representing the group sucked ass.

i totally think i'm the youngest person ever here :/

That is all.

[Caitlin]

Holy Hell, you were born in the 90s!!! Even *I* feel old now.

[miscorrections]

do you really? can you put up a picture of said dog?


i miss pets so bad here. not having a cat or dog is killing me.

[marooko]

4 realz?

fuking lol.

[amyzzz]

fuking lol.
Is that like fucking + puking?

I bet someone has a fetish for that. (Justin, maybe?)

[miscorrections]

incidentally i just painted my toenails.

[amyzzz]

What color? I need to paint mine sometime soon.

[miscorrections]

i did a nice coral-y orange color. very summery.

[kimery08]

when you paint your toenails do you go all out with the soaking, exfoliating, cutting, filing... ??

i do.

[miscorrections]

nah, i just paint them. but if they need to be cut then yes, cutting and filing too.

[amyzzz]

when you paint your toenails do you go all out with the soaking, exfoliating, cutting, filing... ??

i do.
What products? I just cut, file, and paint.

[Caitlin]

I NEVER paint my nails. Neither fingers nor toes. Why? Because I suck at it and I've really never given much attention to my nails. I get a french manicure every 6 months or so, but other than that - they're always bare.

[kimery08]

well first there is the pumice stone. then some lavander scrub thing my mom gave me but i believe it serves the same purpose as the stone but i just love the way it smells. then lotion of course. i also use burts bees cuticle creme to keep everything nice and soft.
reading this makes me realize how anal i am about my feet.

fuck it. they look good.

[miscorrections]

ha. for not getting any attention except painting nails once in a while, mine are pretty ok. i try not to look at them though 'cause i really don't like feet.

[captncrzy]

I spend the $20 and get a spa pedicure once a month or so. It's great. The one by my house has this really nice little Asian guy that I always get to do mine so I don't feel weird about a chick rubbing my feet.

[miscorrections]

i'm too terrified of pedicures/manicures to get them. a lot of places don't sterilize stuff and pass various gross fungi on from other people to you.

my life would be so much nicer if i didn't think about this kind of thing.

[captncrzy]

I watch (the one by my place) anyway pretty closely; they clean the tubs out with disenfectant when they're done and they keep their tools in disenfectant. And they wear gloves.

[Caitlin]

I will never get a pedicure as I have this fear of people touching my feet. I hate feet.

[captncrzy]

It freaked me out at first too until I realized how great it felt and how pretty my feet looked afterwards.

[SuperClaud]

hi all, new to the convo....

personally, im obsessed with my feet. i don't think ppl @ pedi places do them well enough, and speaking about their cleanliness....when i got back from coachella, my feet looked like sh*t from all the dust and walking, so i got a pedi. then i had to battle athletes foot afterwards! never again..

also, going back to the BC convo, i'm on the IUD and lemme tell you, it is the greatest invention known to man. i've been on a million kinds of pills for about a decade b/c they f*cked up my cycle, gave me high blood pressure, gain weight, and heart burn....now im so freakin happy not having to deal with that or babies lol

although, i do have that maternal instinct...but i haven't met someone worth going through the trouble of a kid for...

[miscorrections]

my feet were still ok after coachella. what wasn't ok was the part in my hair.

[SuperClaud]

yeah, my hair was in two braids the entire time. no hope..

[miscorrections]

didn't the part get sunburned? mine got all awful and red, and then it peeled which was absolutely lovely.

[SuperClaud]

no, i wore my bf's hat the whole time. but that has happened to me before, and its awful...

[Caitlin]

I had my hair up in a hair claw and hat. The one time it wasn't so, it had been up but in a hair band over the front. Also, my friends refused to get there any earlier than 5 so the sun could have done really no damage,

[SuperClaud]

i camped, so i could barely get dressed and put on some eyeliner before i was soaked in sweat. i gave up on the hair..lol

[miscorrections]

you actually put makeup on? i salute you.

[Hannahrain]

I was surprised by how many women at the campsite were wearing makeup. The girl in the tent next to me actually brought a hair straightener.

[Caitlin]

i camped, so i could barely get dressed and put on some eyeliner before i was soaked in sweat. i gave up on the hair..lol

I'd like to camp next year, but the friends of mine that go every year are a bunch of pussies.

[Caitlin]

I was surprised by how many women at the campsite were wearing makeup. The girl in the tent next to me actually brought a hair straightener.

Hahaha, I'd be one of those too. I have no shame in saying i'm one hell of a definition of a hormonal and insecure vagina.

[miscorrections]

i'm fairly low maintenance regularly, so at the campsite i just went straight to shit. i don't think i even brushed my hair.

[chairmenmeow47]

having someone do my nails is the most uncomfortable thing ever. i have this weird thing against paying people to do shit like that, though i do pay for haircuts cause i could never do that myself.

i file when paint my nails. i pumice and foot scrub twice a week though. my toenails have been rainbow since i was 12 or 13. my mom always says i'll have to paint them different someday... but it's been over 12 years and i still win. take that, mom!

http://ivy.aholic.us/gallery/albums/delasoul/032_lazy_toes.sized.jpg

and do you girls do any sort of "girls nights"? my girlfriends and i get together and watch "so you think you can dance" and drink wine. i <3 it.
