I have had a lot of success washing my derby pads in the top rack of the dishwasher using homemade dishwasher detergent powder and white vinegar. It knocks out the smell and kills a lot of the bacteria without roughing them up and making the velcro fuzz out the way it does in the washing machine (pads are expensive,…

I had such a crush on Antony Langdon. Mrow.

I definitely had some pictures of him around when I was in middle school. VK and JGL when they were in their long hair phases. Mrow.

Agreed. I think you're supposed to dislike everyone. I finally had a vote of confidence in Nick at the end when he seemed to realize just how horrible Daisy and Tom (and everyone/everything they represent) were. I think Fitzgerald did a great job of creating people who were insufferable/disgusting.

I think the appropriate word for what I'm feeling is "verklempt."

I feel like there are some reasoning flaws here. Valley girls were pitted against perms, but would valley girls have really BEEN valley girls WITHOUT perms? Also, does Lisa Frank not belong mostly in the early 90's? I feel like I have to vote for CPK out of historical accuracy (with the argument that while Lisa Frank…

Really? None of my UA compression pants are made in the USA.

Dang. Sounds like Kate Middleton's mother is taking a page out of the Kris Jenner playbook.

Oooh. Looper was awesome. High hopes for Django. And, because I'm a sucker for Baz Luhrmann, I'm looking forward to Great Gatsby (but I feel like that's apples and oranges).

I actually laughed out loud at this, especially at the end. The expression of pure glee is priceless.

Razor and Blade? They're FLAKES!

According to myself and Gap Outlet, flares are totally in. And on sale.

Same. I tasted it in middle school, and immediately thought it tasted like crap and couldn't understand why everyone thought it was so great. In college I realized some of it wasn't so bad and started drinking, but I was 21 or 22 before I really got into it or cared much about booze. My response to "it's an acquired…

*Corgan. Also, correct. He's the only original member of the band still in said band right now. And they're coming to my town pretty quick here.

Agreed. And yes, it might be revolting, but that's how Hollywood rolls.

Oh yes. Did not go unnoticed.

I love how the tweeter with a cross after her name is saying "Bitch is about to die." Good stuff. Also, the one with the cross in her name calling KStew a cunt who shouldn't live.

I...did not even realize Wet Seal still existed. Where I grew up didn't have any Contempo's around it, but we all got excited when Gadzooks showed up in the mid-90's with their VW bug in the middle of the store and whatnot.

Fair enough. I'm off Clinique now that they're selling in China, which means they're now required to test on animals. So as soon as this bottle is gone, I'll be on the hunt for something else as well. Or I'll just use coconut or sunflower seed oil because I'm cheap and have a ton of it.

This exactly. They'll just tell you the "Velocity" line is totally for you!
