More evidence that most Americans have terrible senses of humour
 

I invented that.

Well, this is a relief. I thought I was going to have to stop smoking.

I read that you should avoid showing excessive emotions like joy or sadness because of the creases they make. Of course, this makes you look like a soulless botoxed hatchet-faced android, but what's that compared to looking young?

If you smoke, Slot C action is definitely required to get the appropriate amount of screaming and moaning.

Since we all know that ABBA's like 16, the young stud would have to be 14 or so. Are 14 yr olds really into slot c?

Kids these days.

Indeed. I invented not reading others' posts and then blithely asserting the same content as my own original thoughts.

Kudos to you, though.

Please let me know if this works. Video preferred.

I think you forgot to untwist your boxer briefs before you put them on this morning.



Note: this is not a pot/kettle situation because my panties are always, ALWAYS in a twist and I am not claiming otherwise.

DUde, can y'all stop acting like perverts for like, 10 posts?

What, do you want to talk about digging up valuable water-logged sand and clay in the yard again?

Personally, I was enthralled by the discussion of the macro nutrient content of various lettuces.

Watch it, skeletal loin-cloth boy.

ETA spinach is your best bet, and romaine sounds like your second-best bet. And that five a day website has some recipes for vegetables that sound kinda good. Will be sure to PM you after I try them.

Ooooh. Close call on which is worse for your skin. One of the world's perfect mathematical axioms is smoking=crow's feet.

Also true what someone said about not changing your facial expressions. At my engagement party, my then-to-be mother-in-law (who is a dermatologist) remarked to me about a friend of my mother's (who, for some reason, doesn't move her face much when she speaks), saying that she would have fantastic skin, because of it.

This is true for each and every one of my law school profs . . .

if you replace the words "his son A.J. Croce" with "himself" (or "herself," in a very few cases).

It depends on the type and cause of the wrinkles. If they are fine lines that are there when you aren't moving your face, alpha-hydroxy acid containing products will help the appearance. If they are caused by sun damage, chemical or laser peels are effective but are risky for those with darker skin tones. The deeper the peel the more effective but the more risky, too, and of course the more down time. Unless you can take at least a week off of work, stick to the superficial peels, either glycolic or lactic acid.

Eat a lot of salmon and nuts and olive oil and your skin will stay fine. I've had countless sunburns on my face in my life (though I'm careful not to let it happen anymore), have smoked on and off for a long time, drink a fair amount, wouldn't know moisturizer from cheese wiz and don't have any wrinkles.

Its got to be a the disgusting amount of fish, including heavy amounts of salmon sushi and lox, peanuts and olive oil (which I all but drink straight).

Or maybe its that I'm a guy and never cared, so it never happened.

Wrinkles
 

Being a dermatologist is one step up from working at the clinique counter. Lots of derms say that kind of stuff but when you research it in the medical literature, you find zero scientific evidence that this is true. You can find bare conclusory statements uttered by derms asserting it is true, but no data to support those contentions.

It helps them to sell botox to the masses.

Just because a doctor says it doesn't mean there is any basis for what they are saying.

Just avoid the alfredo...

Insufficient. I want to hear from a cat who got shot in the head. Thats gotta smart like hell.

How old are you? Male skin doesn't show the effects of sun damage and smoking until later than female skin. Unless they are pretty fair skinned and got a significant amount of sun damage, most men won't start seeing the effects of sun damage and smoking on their skin until their mid or late 30's. Women starting seeing it in their late 20's to early 30's.

Or it could be genetics, and the fact that the skin on men's faces is more like the skin on women's backs (i.e., thick) b/c of that "estrogen" stuff.

The most painful gun-shot wounds are those that go through bone.

Funny, that's what my evidence professor did the rest of the time! He was considered the toughest professor at my school (because he regularly flunked 10% of the class). He liked to talk about how he knew evidence better than X judge or Y textbooker writer or any other authoritative source. He caught me sleeping in class one day and woke me with an "Are we boring you Ms. Bunny?" To which I replied yes, and plunked my head back down. another star in the constellation of my shining moments in law school.

I now have this disturbing image of Sebby with Cheese Whiz all over his face. This is going to haunt me for days...

A "skull" is made out of "bone."

ETA that it should be "gunshot" not "gun-shot."

So men have high levels of estrogen in their facial skin? Interesting. I hate to ask, but can you cite me the supporting Dr. Nick Riviera treatise?

Wrinkles
 

He looked like that on Sunday. A can of Wiz in one hand, a bottle of Stoli Vanil in the other hand. I was ugly...

Wrinkles
 

The enzyme peels are pretty good, too. Just get a patch test with any of these peels and stick to the superficials unless you plan on hiding out of view for awhile.

Fine. I'll admit it. I use Oil of Olay Complete on my face. And I glow gloriously b/c of it.

Men lack estrogen. Wow, the schools in your area must be really bad.

That was Lubridrem, you idiot.

Same here. SPF 15 is imperative, lest I start to resemble

I just use to TCB, and my package glows gloriously b/c of it. You can see your reflection in my balls.

Do you have fuzzy sweaters and boas?

This is an area where your genes play a big role. Check out grandmothers, mothers, aunts, and older sisters. Chances are you're going to end up with skin like theirs.

Thanks for pointing out that obvious observation. The bone and the skin and the meninges are why it is painful to get shot in the head if you aren't knocked unconscious, of course. The CNS tissue itself not innervated with sensory nerves so that isn't the source of the pain if you get shot in the head. Only the structures surrounding the brain are innervated with sensory nerves.

This answers the mirror question that Shape Shifter had last week.

It's too goddamn expensive to waste on TCBing.
