this isn't really that gross, just bizarre: I have noticed that sometimes IMMEDIATELY after I smoke weed, a long, fully-grown white hair that wasn't there before ends up protruding from this particular spot on my right cheek. wtf does this mean/how the fuck does this happen

eleven months pass...

my bacne is bleeding

The Reverend, Monday, 16 January 2012 01:21 (twelve years ago) link

When I had bacne, I had to throw out a few t-shirts for that very reason.

Bite toenails: Check
Bite cuticles and chew up the skin (although don't swallow it): Check
Express blackheads/whiteheads/acne: Have we even MET?
Pick nose: Check, for when you really can't get the stuff in the back
Hork sinus congestion out mouth and sort of swish it around to sense the texture before spitting: Check! (Soooo satisfying.)
Bacne blood/scratches: Check, because my stupid skin is SO SENSITIVE to every goddamn thing.
Pee in shower: Oh please, this is not even gross.

Have peed in a pint glass from the kitchen sink when boyfriend's roommate simply would NOT get out of the shower. Poured down sink drain, washed glass afterward.

i was up at 3am last night watching botfly extraction videos

Oh yeah, I've seen that one.

I sometimes watch the zit squeezing ones on youtube. I often have to do so through my hands for the really gross ones (there is some unbelievable) stuff out there but I love it.

ENBB, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:01 (twelve years ago) link

Oh wait that's a compilation - I hadn't seen it. THE ONE IN THE EYEBALL. Oh. My. God.

ENBB, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:01 (twelve years ago) link

Also, now that I'm thinking about gross things involving peeing, have wiped self with all manner of things in club/bar bathrooms/while in altered states (or not wiped at all), including own underwear or tights (remove first, ball up and stuff in purse for laundry, or possibly throw out), the cardboard roll that has no more toilet paper on it (remove from spindle first and throw out after), own hand (wash after). Pretty much I figure guys don't have to wipe anything, so I don't mind being cavalier about it, either.

It means why you gotta be a montague? (Laurel), Monday, 16 January 2012 19:02 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah I have done all three of those. The cardboard tube one works pretty well but is sort of uncomfortable.

ENBB, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:04 (twelve years ago) link

hahaha the one where the botfly juice gets on the camera lens

dayo, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:05 (twelve years ago) link

I've learned more on ILX than I've ever learned in school.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:06 (twelve years ago) link

is it wrong that now I kind of want to get infected by a botfly larvae just so I can pull one out

dayo, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:07 (twelve years ago) link

yes

You do not want to be in a room with me within 12 hours of my having eaten any kind of cheese.

I had this same thought! Like it has to feel so satisfying when that thing pops out!

somebody sh1pley the brinks truck (Whiney G. Weingarten), Monday, 16 January 2012 19:12 (twelve years ago) link

I've been kind of bummed I haven't gotten a big zit in like 10 years, I miss poppin em.

somebody sh1pley the brinks truck (Whiney G. Weingarten), Monday, 16 January 2012 19:13 (twelve years ago) link

I'm not gonna read that lamp because I feel like I could catch one of those just by reading about it

dayo, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:13 (twelve years ago) link

Oh, shut up WGW you poor unblemished man.

ENBB, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:13 (twelve years ago) link

I've popped zits in the past that erupted on the scale of Krakatoa.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:18 (twelve years ago) link

I've gotten a few tiny zits lately and it felt unsatisfying to pop them

dayo, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:19 (twelve years ago) link

I think I may be a premature popper

dayo, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:19 (twelve years ago) link

fuck, pretty sure ENBB and I are soul sisters. I do all these things, including preteen toenail biting past (got called out on it by an Aunt, said I ripped the nail off.. stopped after that), even once masturbated at previous job!

Sometimes floss out teeth in a pinch with strands of hair - don't know if that's gross really but can't think of much else that's left! I used to be a bathtub smoker when I lived at my Dad's house (he smoked everywhere, why shouldn't I? Used to grab a book, ashtray, cigs and a Portishead CD and soak until the water got cold, refilling once or twice..)

I've never heard of the hair floss before, but yeah...makes sense.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:30 (twelve years ago) link

lol Lex, <3

ENBB, Monday, 16 January 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link

I have terribly spaced teeth so I get a lot of things stuck in, and have some obsessive issues about things stuck in teeth - so yeah, since I don't carry toothpicks.. pluck a hair!

Also an occasional hair grows out of my chin and I LOVE plucking that fucker but I know I've discussed that before. So fun.

agreed that the botfly removal looks so satisfying. well, not the eye ones.

following on from laurel's honking of sinus congestion, at the moment i'm coughing up all kindsa gross shit, and kind of enjoying the feel of it in my mouth.

hey yall, still a booger eater :/

ah, how quaint (Matt P), Monday, 16 January 2012 21:06 (twelve years ago) link

-I only wash my jean once every few months, raw denim thing.
-I had a boil last year that grew to the size of an acorn. I cut it open myself and lord...... it was the grosses sight and smell ever. but it was so satisfying
-I like my girl's underarm's smell

JacobSanders, Monday, 16 January 2012 21:22 (twelve years ago) link

Boils. I got one about ten years ago. Summer of '02 when I was working at a Hollywood Video. I didn't know what one was. I just knew I had this sore lump on the back of my neck and so I rubbed at it absentmindedly to give myself relief.

One day, I was rubbing on it up at the cash register in a slow period in between customers when it burst in between my fingers. I looked at my hand and saw the ribbon of white fluid and smelled the overpowering cheesy smell. I ran to the bathroom and tried to wash it up the best I could, but it kept oozing the rest of the day.

I tried squeezing the rest out at home, but even after I had squeezed everything out, I still had this great big lump. I carried that lump with me for 9 years.

Flash forward to December 2011. ILX is in the sandbox. I'm back in the office after being laid low for a couple of days by a brutal virus. I'm rubbing the back of my neck.

At some point, I'm resting my chin in my hand, staring at something on the computer, when I smell it. That fucking smell! And I look at my hand but there's no cheesy white stuff, but I have my suspicions about where that smell could have come from. So I rub the back of my neck some more. My hand smells like, 10 times as bad.

And so I rub and rub and rub and rub and keep getting the smelly hand and eventually, a small amount of flaky white paste.

I think that I was essentially expelling the stuff through my skin. The boil never came to a head or anything. But I worked on it some more and now the lump is gone and the skin on the back of my neck no longer smelly. I'm hoping it's gone for good, but I fear that some of it may still remain beneath the surface.

What the fuck, people. What the fuck.
