Vents: Random Acts of Venting!

[Dexter Morgan]

Some of the 'better' stores in my area are starting to supply disinfecting wipes just for that purpose....

What a wonderful and sanitary idea.

Eyes, nose and mouth. These are things on you NOT to touch when you are out in public or have been out in public and haven't washed your hands good yet. These are vulnerable spots where germs can more easily invade us, the eyes being the weakest point in my opinion.

Our bodies are constantly at biological war with our environments and I feel it doesn't hurt to get out and give the immune system a work out by puttering around in the germ infested public. Some of those "dirty people" you see out and about have some healthy immune systems due to the fact they haven't nuked their own biological defenses along with the dirt and germs they might pick up. Anti-Bacterial products kill everything, including the biological good guys.

Secondly, tend to your sinuses. These means keeping your living and working environment properly hydrated. This means keeping the humidity up high enough so that your sinuses don't dry out. Wintertime the heat is turned on and heat drys out the indoors and people's sinuses.

Think of your sinuses as a filter system for the air you breathe. If you dry out that filter, it will crack and perhaps bleed, if it bleeds that means it has open wounds for GERMS, that should be filtered out to go flying right into, past your other biological defenses. That is why airborne colds and flu are so easy to pick up in the winter.

Snot is our friend. At first it's a warning system that something is amiss and it's trying to insulate the sinuses from bad stuff. It's also trying to hydrate drying sinuses.

If you don't have a humidifier, get one. If you got one, tend to it and let your house become hydrated. It will also help you with your dusting and cleaning. A dry house will soak up furniture polish like a sponge, where as a hydrated house is easier to wipe down and clean. I have a theory on it helping with one's heating bills as well, but that is probably mind numbingly boring to go into.

Saline nasal spray is good for hydrating a dried out schnoz.

Indeed it is, but its like taking a drink of water in the desert. You satisfied the thirst, but you are still roasting in the desert.

My sinuses would get so bad they would hurt so much I would cry. That really sucks because I have a high pain threshold. I used all kinds of methods but the saline and come vick's vapor rub around the entrance to my nose was the only thing that would work.

Then I got a humidifier and it all went away. I was running baseboard electric heat in my basement workshop and it dried things out insanely bad. I would start reeling about in pain from my sinuses and crank up the big monster humidifier a friend dropped off and in a matter of minutes my sinuses would ease up.

Another friend of mine swears by them. He says he hasn't been sick one winter since I got his and maintains it.

Why is it you can prick your finger, but not finger your prick?

I said not counting your own! 

Feel free to finger away! (I don't need any further 411!) Hey! Welcome to WTMI!
We'll talk about it all, from birth-like bowel movements to self gratification. . .

As far as other dicks, its a No Dick Zone here. As far as vagina, I haven't seen one since my x-wifes. Thanks for bringing up that painful thought. Why not give me a paper cut while you are at it and pour lemon juice in it?

I'd rather utilize MEK. It burns deeper, faster than lemon juice. . .

Here, can yah hold this stack of freshly slit corrugated cardboard fer me?

PH and Lex..... you guys are too much.  This thread has become very interesting indeed. Carry on with the vulgarities...... I'm anxiously awaiting some uproarious laughter.

And now....... here's another vent via Walmart......  Well, this isn't really Walmart's fault, but I gotta blame somebody.  Today, I went to WallyWorld, as I entered the store, I grabbed a cart.... (like you do) and headed for the can.  I was in a very big hurry, so I parked my cart by the restroom door (like you do),and entered. I was in there, for what could only be described as nanoseconds,and as I exited, I realized that some dumb son of a bitch, stole my cart.  Because of this cart thievery, I had to walk all the way across the store, to get another one.  Man, I was hot!!!! As I walked past the greeter, with my second cart, she looked at me funny, I looked at her and said "Yeah it's me again, some moron stole my cart,while I was in the restroom." She says "OH MY GOD!!!" and I said "I know" Jesum Crow!!!!" and she just busted out laughing. Then I snickered to myself, the rest of the way through the store. My burning question is this...... Have we as a society become sooo damn lazy, that we've become cart snipers at stores??? It's pretty damn bad, when people are sooo lazy, they can't even get their own damn cart, at the store. The people that do stuff like this, are probably too lazy to wipe their own ass,and probably don't even wash their hands when exiting the restroom!!!!  OK,where's the Tylenol? 

Or on the other hand there might be some employee who's responsible for taking care of the carts walking away with your cart grumbling about the customers who leave carts everywhere.     Sorry, that thought just happened to run through my mind.

When I told my husband about it, he said it happened to him one time,and his cart had 15 items in it.    At the checkout, the lady that rang my stuff up, said a little old lady asked her to watch her cart, while she went to the restroom. The cashier got busy took her eyes of the cart,and somebody stole it.  The crazy thing was, the cart was almost full.  I think there are some punk kids doing the crap.  God help them, if I see them pull that crap!!! I'll run in to the restroom, and come flying out screaming....... Super Dex  and open a big ol' can of whoopass on them.

That's what I was going to say. Before that I used to wipe them w/baby wipes.
