Now tagless for your comfort.

Two questions for the hivemind:

1) Leg waxing: How long do you grow the hair out before the waxing session?

2) Land's End beach thongs: Why do they smell so manky right out of the package and how do I get rid of the smell? They are stanking up my gym bag.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ha! Manky!

I got nothing useful, though.

I just can't get my mind about wanting to win something badly enough to cheat. I mean, I'd always know I'd cheated, you know? I would never feel like I'd really done it, and if I'd devoted my life to being a professional athlete, I can't imagine not caring I hadn't really done it.

Signed, deficient in the imagination, and also prone to GUILT

whoa...we do not call flip flops thongs ever. Was very confused and grossed out by you not WASHING the "thong" before wearing it.. Also was pretty sure Land's End does not make that kind of thong for beachwear. Or possibly at all.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

flea and lisah are both me, but in totally different domains. Whether this means they are also each other remains to be seen.

Hey, the catalog says "thongs." I do NOT wear the underwear version of thong (not that there's anything wrong with them--just not for me).

Stanky flip flops. Any suggestions? Or should I just let them air out on the patio for awhile?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I imagine the smell is that pesticide apparel manufacturers use, or maybe it's just something to do with the plastic. Have you tried Febreze?

Maybe your goals are fame and money, and everyone else is doing it, so it's only fair if you do it too.
