I still have to work with the strawberry flavor guy. He doesn't understand why I never accept his invitations to lunch.

i am irrationally annoyed by knots in my armpit hair

(Ex) Sales director at my current company used to boss my wife around and ask her for cups of tea and stupid little favours like that.

He works at a competitor now and they wanted to get my wife in for an interview there but she told them to fuck off rather than work for that cunt again.

I get to hear details of Jenny's work stories and I get IE (Irrationally Enraged) about them. Fuck that dude. And fuck him for seeming like a pal rather than seeming like the POS he is.

xp - whoa.... i am irrationally annoyed by knots in my armpit hair

ime, the more a person of authority tries to pass themselves off as a "pal", the more likely they are to try to treat you like an indentured servant

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 17:52 (fourteen years ago)

how do you get knots in your armpit hair...

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 17:57 (fourteen years ago)

i dunno, by walking and moving my arms?

it's like how power/computer cords get mysteriously entangled in mere seconds, but in my armpits

mookieproof, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 17:58 (fourteen years ago)

how long are they? your pit hairs, i mean. not your arms. unless you're a simian, in which case: arm-length-relevant.

rocognise gnome (remy bean), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 18:00 (fourteen years ago)

not terribly, i don't think, although i have neither measured it nor compared it to that of others

mookieproof, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 18:01 (fourteen years ago)

Knotted armpit hairs happens to me. I didn't think it was an uncommon thing.

lots of hair conditioner & a comb...or scissors? what do you normally do for armpit hair knots? this would make me kinda ia too

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 18:34 (fourteen years ago)

I shaved one of my armpits once. was really hot and had no a/c so I remember it bothering me, then I guess in some half-asleep state I got up and shaved it. Felt good, man

I don't know, those are a lot less annoying than those huge, ugly window stickers.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:28 (fourteen years ago)

Yeah, same diff. I suppose

can someone explain the stickers on cars that are a white oval with two black block letters in them? I thought they were to denote a state you'd visited but a lot of them aren't state abbreviations & it drives me a little batty trying to figure them out. I feel very daft.

Oh god, this is really common in this area and it has to include some reference to the school mascot

University of Iowa plate with HWKFAN79 on it or something

mh, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:53 (fourteen years ago)

the destination/airport code ones? (xp)

rocognise gnome (remy bean), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:53 (fourteen years ago)

i thought it was countries visited but then i saw a "CHOC" one and now i don't know anymore

brownie, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:54 (fourteen years ago)

I think they are pretty much meaningless at this point and you can get them for any touristy thing or interest ever now.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:55 (fourteen years ago)

it's just inside joek place abbreviations

like ppl who vacation on the outer banks of north carolina have OBX

yeah I've wondered a lot about this myself and never figured out what they meant. they have to represent more than one thing.

frogbs, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:56 (fourteen years ago)

yeah they used to be for countries but these days you can get stuff like http://i1.cpcache.com/product/51601800/wtf_oval_stickers_bumper_stickers.jpg?height=160&width=160

I think they're meant to emulate European country code stickers.

A friend of mine arranged some to spell out ME GA DE TH on his back bumper.

i think it started out as places visited, but kind of informally abbreviated? and now it's funny little catchphrases, school initials, food prefs, whatever.

rocognise gnome (remy bean), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:58 (fourteen years ago)

i saw a BNL one the other day

frogbs, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:59 (fourteen years ago)

i guess i never noticed them or didn't see any when it started out meaning something which is probably why i'm so confused on it

frogbs, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 21:59 (fourteen years ago)

Okay, this is awesome and almost redeems their very existence.

jon /via/ chi 2.0, Wednesday, 18 January 2012 22:00 (fourteen years ago)

now I want them!

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 18 January 2012 22:13 (fourteen years ago)

My grandma's old neighbor has a NOFO sticker & I sort of want one.

He has the highest hair:surface area ratio I have ever seen on a human.

His chestscaping drove Brees and the other Saints to kick the Colts' ass (asses?) in Superbowl MXLOLETC.

I had an Albanian friend in college who was probably the hairiest guy I've ever seen. Gorgeous, but his body hair was like a layer of felt, it was incredible. He asked me and my friends to wax his shoulders so he could wear an off the shoulder dress for a guys-dress-as-girls costume party. (lol college) Oh god the poor guy was in so much pain. Very similar to the 40 YO Virgin waxing scene, but with way more hair.

Janet Snakehole (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 20 January 2012 04:07 (fourteen years ago)

I lived across the hall from a guy during my first semester of college that, I kid you not, smelled kind of like a wet dog when coming back from the showers due to the amazing amount of hair he had. His name was Dane.

Moving away from body hair, I hate search boxes and the like with text like 'Search' in them, that doesn't disappear when you click on them to put in your own search terms, so you end up searching for things like 'Discosearchgs'

I knew a dude in college who had to decide every time he shaved where the beard stopped and the chest hair began - there was a straight line in this wall of hair running across his neck point that tended to vary up and down a bit.

I'm really sorry to sound so dumb here, but is this something in queer terminology? I'm assuming you dont mean he's a furry. I feel really dumb asking :/
