Subject: Always Read The Label
Always!

So, I started developing some red and tender skin below my lower lip.
I'm thinking, WTF, herpes? I never had herpes before (that I know of).
Wait, Aunt Ethel kissed me a few weeks ago; does she have secret life
of being a dirty slut? Naw.

 But then the redness starts creeping down my chin. After a few weeks
my chin is red and dry with a few small pustuals. Uh oh! I start
thinking I got herpes X-45 (the type that melts the porcelain off
urinals), or maybe I got mouth cancer, or maybe some other disease
that is coming on related to my dumb (and fun) behavior from my youth.
Even the inside of my mouth feels strange.

Then calm sets in and I become a medical detective. I change soaps,
avoid spicy food, apply balms and salves, get additional sun, avoid
sun,and moisturize. Nothing works.

 Yesterday while brushing my teeth I get this great idea -- I read the
label on the toothpaste tube. It says, "If irriatation occurs or
persists, discontinue use." Eureka!!! I right away switch toothpaste
and now I am regaining my youthful beauty -- as we speak.

 Lesson learned; Always read labels. It doesn't matter if it the
directions to a homemade bomb making kit, or something as benign as
toothpaste; read the label each and every time you use a product.

Makes more sense to read the label each time you start on a new one instead.

You, could be right, but that would mean I'd have to remember what the
warnings were for long periods of time as unexpected side-effects
could take a peroid of time to manifest (as in this case), besides I
have so much info in my brain, sometimes it overflows and falls out.

 Or you could be wrong, as in this case. This is the brand of
toothpaste I've been buying for some time.

Have you tried corks in your ears ?

I'm NEVER wrong, and dont you forget it.

And if you read the label whenever you start on
a new tube,  even you should notice the change
in the text even if its the same brand every time.

You're NEVER wrong????? Do you remember posting this Tue, 13 Oct 2009
11:36:29 +1100:

Surely you must realise that someone who has shacked up with someone
else for years has more rights than that in plenty of US jurisdictions

And the OP's answer was:
....Anyway, the bum is moving out, so apparently
the lawyer told him he didn't have any right to stay.  He is moving
his
things out as we speak.......

I guess you walk on water also.

That was a joke, fuckwit. The comment about the corks in the
ears should have hinted at that even for the terminal stupids.

OK. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that were joking. Normally
when someone is joking, they try to make it known by following the
phrase with LOL, LMAO, (joke), etc. to avoid any misinterpretation by
the reader.
