I keep tweezers in my car and in my laptop bag, that way I can remove them at any time if they are bothering me (which is more frequent than I would like).

I'm 33 and I had a good 4 inch hair out of the ear the other day, it was almost like it sprouted overnight. I love the crazy eye brows, I always pretend I'm Cassius from Gladiator. Wife does not care for it.

Really? Huh. I've gotten gas there before and turned left to go north. I guess I failed to notice the signs.

i love finding these and ripping them out. it's one of my favorite things. good thing this isn't an official psychological disorder or anything.

Agreed. If my app is in the window the same time as my meal just give it to the servers to eat and take it off my bill.

That's very rational. On mrs meow and I's second date this happened. We had some push back from the server and her manager about taking it off our bill. We both flipped out simultaneously and got up and left. I knew it was love at that point.

I was at a fairly nice restaurant the other day and when they brought the food out my friends dish was meant for another table. He ordered snapper and received mahi. Not cool since it basically disrupted two parties food because the other folks either got food delivered (but not touched) to another table or their wait time was doubled.

I understand if it's all uou order. But me and the wife both ordered a sandwich, and she ordered fried zucchini. It's not part of the meal, it's ordered cause she's starving and wants something to munch on

I haven't noticed it at work. I've noticed it mostly from athletes and musicians, and nerds.

Guy at my AutoZone does this. His skin pours out over the collar because the shirt is too small. Has to be so uncomfortable.

My sister-in-law (A Florida Georgia line fan) just showed me the video for "This is How We Roll". I seriously want to commit murder so badly right now. This is garbage, hackneyed country rap vomit. They are seriously one of the hottest-selling "country" acts out there right now? Between this and Taylor Swift I want to gouge my eardrums out.

What y'all need is some Tom T Hall or good ole Conway Twitty.

Today's country is so derivative, down to every song having the breakdown in the last chorus.

It has gotten much worse in the last 20 years, since Chris LeDoux passed.

This is how I felt when the music industry decided that it was a good idea to combine metal and rap.
They were both fine, in their respective corners and didn't need to be introduced.
