I share an office with a woman who chews gum with her mouth open, every single frikkin day. She also sometimes eats sandwiches at her desk and chews with her mouth open. I hate her more than I ever thought I could hate a person. That sounds is the WORST, it makes me retch every time

I get a similar sensation sometimes. I also get panic attacks, and it is not the same thing. Although panic attacks can also make you feel like you can't breathe, I also sometimes feel like I can't fill my lungs without having a panic attack

I think all animal prints are tacky

Didn't Jezebel just recently publish a manifesto against contouring?

Also, the armpit hair seems to have spawned "pithair-truthers": ppl who think that the hair is fake. The internet is a fantastic place

The first time I heard of it was in that delightfully 80ies movie Roxanne with Steve Martin and Darryl Hannah. Steve Martin plays a modern Cyrano de Bergerac and in one scene he tries to make his nose look smaller with make-up. It doens't work

Poll: how many times do you think Taylor Swift will marry?

I'm gay, but no one at work knows. Not because they would mind, because I'm sure that they wouldn't, but because I don't want to be the token "gay" and have ppl asking me questions about being gay as if we're all the same person.

Actually, that makes sense. But there are less gross ways to achieve the same results. Babies are obviously not born with a bacterial flora in their guts, it has to come from outside sources. Studies show that babies get most of their intestinal bacteria from their parents, but usually when parents kiss and snuggle…

You should do one of these with which feature of new Kinja is the most annoying

For men to be certain that they are the father of their children, and are not wasting time an energy on protecting someone else's offspring, they have to control the woman. So they try to control her physically and psychologically to make sure she can't and doesn't want to sneak off and get pregnant with your rival…

Wear something over your mouth and nose when you clean it, mildew etc releases spores and inhaling them can make you sick. But just hose it down, take a sponge and detergent of any kind and scrub all the nooks and crannies. Detergents are more effective than vinegar, but it's trendy to use vinegar, so do as you wish…

I never got into Twitter, and I haven't opened Facebook in months, but I'm still cranky. Now what?

Tldr: speed reading is bunk

Lesbians can give each other HPV, so even if you're a "gold star" lesbian, you should get a pap smear. It's not transmitted through bodily fluids, but through skin contact.

Yes, but the median age to develop cancer is 75-ish. At that point, it's a race to see what kills you first anyway

Yes, ppl knew, but they didn't have the studies to back it up. The fact that some hormones fuel certain cancers is proven, those hormones are synthesized from fat and it has been proven that high % body fat affects the body's hormone levels. The logical assumption is of course that high % body fat increases the risk…
