If I ever knowingly leave a board, my last post will only consist of one word, namely the previously written name.

I love Starburst candy, but I hate the wrappers.

The wrapper sticks to the candy so that pieces of paper tear off on it.  And it sticks in such a way that the remaining paper can't be pulled off with your fingers.

Oh God, Starbursts...

Anyone else ever do the thing where you unwrap every piece in a whole package, then flatten them out and make a sphere, with layers of alternating flavors?  Or is that just me?

It's pretty fantastic in every way.  If you're feeling swanky, you can freeze it after sphere-ifying them, thus ensuring that it is firm and chewy when you first bite into it.

I used to know a girl who soaked starburst jellybeans in 150 proof vodka

Apparently it's quite tasty

Given what happens to her 40 minutes later i wouldn't recommend it ;)

I really should have done this earlier in the week. Now I'm finishing this defaced book at 2:30 in the morning and I have yet to wrap any presents.

Ah well. No one to blame but me, I suppose.

Why the hell does it take people so long to bathe/shower?  Seriously, there are only three, maybe four areas that might regularly need it: Armpits, butt, groin, and maybe hands.  You don't have to clean every single square inch of your skin!

Eeeeewww...  :huh

Are you a college student perchance? I am, and I sometimes must subscribe to that notion--but only during bouts of extreme studying!

It's in response to my mom, since she apparently takes over an hour in the shower trying to clean every single cell possible.  Shame she's not that OCD when it comes to her house.

I usually shower for a maximum of five minutes. That is enough time to soak yourself, add soap to your entire body and then rinse it off. I've never been able to understand people who are in there longer than that unless they have minor case of hypothermia that they need to remedy.

When I had long dreadlocks a shower took me 10min (when I cleaned them; not counting the time it took to dry them). Still can't see why some people are in there for more than a quarter of an hour.
