"Manscape It All" And Other Great Quotes On The Subject — Best Facebook Discussion This Month?

MANSCAPING, amusing myself with making someone grow a porn 'stache, why nobody will admit to a unibrow.

Let's discuss MANSCAPING.

I can't say that word enough.  

I did a very informal poll of my Facebook friends to gather their views on it.

Sounds like everyone is pretty much in favor of it. You don't see '70s style hair around anymore on any body part. Remember those movies they used to show in school where the actors always looked like they were from Sweden?

And porn 'stache!!! Only person that looks awesome with that is Reza from Shah's of Sunset. Although a great bet would be to make someone grow one.

But I digress as usual.

Back to my results:

The gentlemen were very happy to share their thoughts. "Sexy." "Manscape it all." "Always manscape." There was talk about friction. "What looks good and what feels good are often at odds." Some people asked me to hook them up with single ladies.

Nobody wanted to admit to going to a waxing establishment. Nobody wanted to talk to me about unibrows. Or ear hair. What's up with that anyway??? Have you ever had a conversation with a dude and he had so much ear or nose hair that you could not look away? People, there are trimmers for such purposes. I know because my husband is obsessive over that. No ear hair on him.

The women seemed just as enthusiastic. "Waxing, shaving, trimming & a pedi for clean nice feet." (UGH there is nothing worse than gross feet. I mean, there is, but we won't discuss that now) "What's good for the goose..."  "It's a must do!"

Personally, I'm all for it until it gets to the point where you look like a giant toddler.  

Feel free to send me your interesting comments, but please, NO PICS lol. Well, maybe some. KIDDING.  

Thanks to all my friends who took part in the conversation. WILL be posting this on your Facebook wall.

All above by the original writer notwithstanding it is morally reprehensible that people who did ,Read More do not, would not send their children to public school but rather private school, religious or secular, sit on a public school board of education. They are there for one reason only ;to keep taxes as low as possible because those that elect them carry private school tuition. That is NOT an acceptable reason to direct/control/guide the education of public school students. Any position put forward that disputes this as the basis for parents of private school students being on a BOE is a lie.

Chris - Educators also receive a $200-$250 tax credit on their personal income tax returns.

It's not just the teachers... As a parent of 2 going on 3 school aged children, I'm amazed at howRead More much our free public schools cost. We get a supply list every year of things like crayons and pencils which I get, although I don't see why it HAS to be crayola. The red crayon in the box from the 99 cents store is just as red as the one in the $4 box from someplace else. Also, I don't understand why I need to send in 4 boxes of tissues, paper towels, wipes, etc per child. When I was a kid, I remember keeping a little pack of kleenex in my desk for when I needed it. I'm sure the district can buy in bulk at half the cost to us and store it in the schools until needed. Also, as far as the teachers go, I'm not sure if they do it on LI, but when I was a SBM in the NYC DOE, we had what was called Teacher's Choice which was a check for $250 that every teacher would get on March 15 (?) to help pay for the classroom supplies they bought throughout the year. It always amazed me how many of the "supplies" were purchased on 03/14. I had the pleasure of denying some of the more bogus expenses. Also, anything they would spend above and beyond their reimbursement is now tax deductible I believe. My wife, sister, cousin and many friends were and some still are classroom teachers. I know firsthand how the good ones give much more than they get in their check(s). The trick is to weed out the ones that are only in it for the money, benefits and summers off and not the kids.

lilly, i just created a group on Facebook (Hewlett-Woodmere District 14 Budget Discussion) forRead More residents of district 14 to share and question. Maybe someone on the board will look at it. Please tell your friends. A copy of the budget is uploaded and can be reviewed. I believe residents should make informed decisions. Read it and see what jumps out at you and looks good, fishy, or just normal.
lilly May 19, 2013 at 03:36 pm
thanks Shirley- we have to keep posting to vote NO for the budget- I try to go to meetings and it isRead More ridiculous to hear how no one comes to the table with ideas of how NOT to SPEND our money! If there were only more people that would attend and stand up and speak up maybe it would change.
Shirley Hanein Lane May 19, 2013 at 02:39 pm
Lilly, you are so correct that there are so many houses for sale and stores for rent. Who wants toRead More move to a district that looks like a ghost town? And let's not forget about the homes that were affected by Hurricane Sandy? People are still rebuilding. Download the budget from the district website and go over it item by item. You will see that the increases are mainly in textbooks and retirement, bus matrons, and BOCES, not "for the Kids" as the lawn signs say. District 14 is so used to getting what they ask for because no one bothers to read the budget. Many residents have drunk the Kool-Aid and would never question the decisions of the administrators or the School Board. And NOT ONE of the candidates mentions FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY! They seem to think that residents are an endless fount of money, when is that going to change?!?!?

It is possible to find a rental, though it might not be easy. Many rentals are in co-op buildings.Read More They are typically not flexible and it is unlikely that you will be able to get into one of those. Your best bet would be in a multi-family house, There you are dealing with a homeowner, rather than a co-op board and a management company, who might be willing to listen to your plight. If you find a sympathetic homeowner you will be OK. It might take patience, but you should find someplace.
