let us get down to brass tacks, shall we?
can we help a guy with perpetual ingrown toenails? i don't know him as he's the friend of a friend of a friend of a cousin of a nephew's

just askin


i was once told black sabbath (or heaven & hell) sound like ingrown toenails

frigg

oops, forgot.
Cutting your toenails straight across, or even a v shape with the sides being longer is supposed to help. I just dug at em for a year.
I've been lucky and haven't had em in 20 yrs.

I don't get it. What's monkey butt?

I'm assuming its for chaffing. Maybe sweating and skin rubbing together? People I know tend to get what we call "swamp ass" at festivals, especially when it wicked hot. They use Gold Bond powder on their butt and ummmm.... balls.

Yeah, you can also buy gels that work for chaffing in the heat (which I would think is better than powders, which might get messy and ruin clothes?). From.... some name that we all know, but I can't think of it now. Not polysporin... but something familiar like that.

Thankfully I'm ball free and I have so far had no prob wit my butt... I would think the powder would turn to mud, but what do i know?

Lol. I think most people more get it between their thighs and under their arms, not in their butt, hahaha. But obviously it's happening to someone!

I remembered: Lanacane. (Lanacaine?)

Asides from balls and monkey butts, is there a notable difference between laundry detergents?
I usually get sun or purex bec0ause its about 425% cheaper than name brand.
Are my clothes not getting as clean?

Yes, some work much better than others, and the cheap ones never work as well. Tide works well. I buy the liquid pods usually because it's most convenient and mess-free, but the liquid Tide that you pour works the best IMO. Liquid laundry detergent is the only kind that leaves no residue on clothes (the pods don't always totally dissolve completely and the powder leaves white marks sometimes).

I saw a comparison thing about detergents and Purex was just as good as the more $$ ones. Not Arm and Hammer, not Kirkland and not store brand. Purex. I get coupons and buy as many as I can when I can get it for like a buck. I usually have 4 to 6 months of a stockpile.I also get All cheap.

it does. I use tide and have for years. For my mom's stuff I used her cheap-o Ajax brand detergent and it's basically colored water. If you have access to a Costco or BJs type of place just get the giant bottle of tide and refill your current bottle.

Anyone have luck with oxyclean? I always want to try it on clothes but i'm afraid of ruining my shit.

Believe it or not, I can tell you with a degree of certainty, that peanut butter works really well on stains.

Note,
speaking of peanut butter, despite having heard it works to get bubble-gum out of hair - which may have been randomly tossed by some asshole during a school assembly - had to cut the hair out, and (still painfully remembered), I was "endearingly" nicknamed Mt. Baldy for a few months afterward.

I just found some tide at a good price. I'm thinking of doing the pepsi challenge between tide and sun. What would be a good stain to put on a couple white t-shirts to compare?
Grass stains?, mud?, or maybe peanut butter?

JWPearl

i thought everybody knew hairspray gets bubble gum out of hair

Ajax detergent and ajax dish soap is the worst. Oxyclean never worked for me :-(
