Agreed! The BLW zealots are almost to the point of the breastfeeding zealots now. Get a grip. Baby led or spoon fed, they are eating. I think I will try this with my soon-to-be third. My 1 year old, I didn’t. I was too worried about choking. Because my son choked when he was a baby. To the point of first aid needed,…

If that seat is used regularly as a changing station I’d consider getting a seat cover, or at least put a blanket or sheet over it. Have a major blowout? Wad up the sheet and throw it in the washer (or garbage if it’s really bad). Then baby wipes will clean up and disinfect anything that seeps through.

Pro tip: keep a…

Always easier to add a little salt than try and take it away.

I was thinking the same, but it would probably be much easier to steal a few bottles of vanilla extract than to lift a fifth from a liquor store.

But... vanilla extract is disgusting? I honestly don’t see how someone could stand to ingest that much of it. And if he purchased the real thing (vs. imitation extract) four and a half bottles probably cost damn near as much as one real bottle of liquor?

Pure or imitation though? If it was pure, five bottles would run in the neighborhood of $100. Not exactly “cost-efficient” there.

Honestly, the best thing to do in Vegas that’s completely free is to just walk around and look at everything. The Bellagio Fountains are fantastic, and the volcano in front of the Mirage isn’t too bad either. Every casino usually has some grand display that you’re free to admire whenever.

Right...the kind of people who are reading a “las Vegas hacks” article also fly in private jets.

It’s insanity. In the story I read, they spoke to a Sephora manager who made the decision to start destroying the samples before throwing them out because an employee taking out the garbage was tit punched so hard by a dumpster diver that they had to go to the hospital.

That’s why I only try on the new products straight from the boxes.

Yeah, they’ll slice a decent chunk off the top then do an alcohol swap and then use a clean q tip to apply. I never just randomly bop over there and try it randomly but I do get my makeup done/take advantage of their lessons quite frequently and that’s how I’ve seen them do it.

Alternately, drink the vodka until you don’t care anymore then use the gloss.

They’re getting an easy head start on the herpes, at least.

I’ve encountered far too many girls who swear they’re gaming the system by slipping into Sephora and using their testers to apply a full beat of makeup before going out for an evening.    

Sodom and Sephora

Well I hope they don’t stop putting samples out for those of us with the good sense to swatch on the back of our hands.

yes, Quite simply, turn your lipstick tube up slightly, and wipe off the top layer of lipstick, just with a tissue. Then, pour a small amount of rubbing alcohol (or vodka) into a glass (I think a shot glass would be sensible here) and dip the exposed lipstick into the alcohol for 30 seconds. 

Blockbuster had to pay for special rights to games and directly, they didn’t just buy them retail at Best Buy.

I wonder how developers - you know, those who actually MAKE the games, as opposed to just profiting from them - will react to this. Because let’s be honest, GameStop by doing this is just creating a private game-swap club where people can play anything they want (as long as it’s on stock I guess) without paying the…

My best friend was a huge gay club party boy in his 20s (before the receding hairline and dadbod set in), and even though he lived in an apartment building that didn’t really have many kids, one year he got a couple of trick-or-treaters. Being a gay club-going gym rat, he didn’t have any sugar in the house... but…
