Hi, my name is Lara, and I'm addicted to using visine.

[LaraMN]

:cry:

1. Well, there are worse addictions.

I was like that too a few months ago. Then I ran out of Visine and was too lazy to go to the store. The issue kind of resolved itself. :shrug: :hi:

[LaraMN]

2. The bitter irony of it is that you use it to eliminate red-eye,

but the more you use it, the more you get red-eye whenever you aren't using it. It's a vicious cycle.

4. Look at the bright side

Santa might ask you to guide his reindeer sleigh someday.

;-)

9. Or I might end up in a commercial with that bastid, Ben Stein.

:scared:

3. Say weren't you going to go cold-turkey with DU?

Or something?

[ZombieNixon]

16. Yep. Starting Wednesday, I'm taking a hiatus.

I just wanted to stick around to turn 19 tomorrow. :hi:

5. Girl, it could be sooooooo much worse.

tip o' the day: crying about your addiction to Visine won't help with the red-eye problem.


:evilgrin:

8. I did note the counter-productive sentiment in my use of smiley...

:rofl:

6. Yeah, well I'm addicted to using Burt's Bees lip balm.

No other anti-chapping lip coating will serve. :P

[LaraMN]

7. You like it, huh? I have the almond-scented hand creme, and I

loo-oooove it! I haven't tried the lip balm, though...

[ET Awful]

10. Just watch out, it can lead to addiction.

If I don't apply it every hour or so, my lips feel parched :P

Also, my cat (Quinn, not Althea) loves it! He'll try and give me kisses after I put it on, so I have to either tolerate that or rub some on my finger for him to lick off. He won't leaveme alone until I do, he even recognizes the sound of the little tube opening :P

I can't tell what it is he likes about it, I think it's the peppermint oil :)

[IA_Seth]

15. Man, that hand cream...

It smells like sugar coookies to me and I LOOVE that stuff.

My mom works for a Co-op that sells the stuff so I am loaded with freebies of it.

ha ha.

18. Burt's Bees is da shit--I have a whole bathroom full of it, lol. n/t

[jpgray]

11. It would pair well with a marijuana habit

[LaraMN]

12. The thought has occurred to me.

I miss my cigarettes infinitely more than the good bud, though.

[jpgray]

13. I tried to acquire the habit of tobacco and failed

FAILED!

How embarrassing. I still mooch from time to time. :)

[Blue-Jay]

14. At first glance, I read that as Vaseline.

I thought to myself, "This ought to be interesting!"

[ET Awful]

19. LMFAO . . . I get an odd feeling that thread would have lasted about

30 seconds :P

[Katherine Brengle]

17. I looooove Visine!

But I have extremely sensitive eyes and they are always dry.

20. With me it's Sinex

I've had recalcitrant sinus passages since I was a teen. :blush:
