05/31/2006: "Seriously now"
Song of the Day: Tricky - Girls
Sometimes the most random things bring back repressed memories that are so ridiculous they're better left repressed.
Most of my exes don't really compete for the "most intelligent man alive" award, but one of them really, really took his stupidity to the extreme. One day I hear him yelling from my bathroom, "Brooke! This is GROSS!" I go in to see what has him in an uproar, and he's pointing at a half-used q-tip laying on my sink. I go through q-tips like water when putting on makeup, because they're perfect for sweeping up loose eyeshadow or fixing crooked eyeliner. If I only use one half, I'll generally leave it out so I can use the other side the next day. The q-tip in question had a very bright blueish/purplish color staining one end.
After I asked what was so gross, he gives me a rant about how it's horrible that I left my earwax-covered q-tips laying out for other people to see. After I stared at him for a second, and then informed him that it was makeup, he goes, "Oh. Well, how was I supposed to know that?"
I don't know, maybe because it was an unmistakable shade of blue?

I guess ear wax is really blue.Shannon, Wednesday, May 31st
My ear wax is a lovely shade of magenta. Sometimes it looks more maroon, though.Lindsay, Wednesday, May 31st
Maybe he should've tasted it to be sure.Babs, Thursday, June 1st
Oh yeah? Well, you're lame. I'm stalking you from my school and defending the ex whom I'm not even related to, and you're lame. Did you know that you didn't speak to him for x amount of time after you broke up? Because, you're lame. LAMER.j!!, Sunday, June 4th
