Is it gross to try on panties?
I went shopping with my friend and her mom recently. My friend tried on panties! Like, actually tried them on, with nothing underneath. Plus, she didn't even buy them!!! When I freaked out they acted like I was crazy. Am I the only one who thinks that is the most disgusting thing ever? Do people actually do that???
4 AnswersFashion & Accessories9 years agoWindows live messenger wont let me change fonts?
I can go to the font window and change the font to anything, and it still only displays it as courier. If I make the font I chose, bold or underlined, it's bold or underlined courier... It displays the correct font that the other person is using though. Its just mine that it displays always as courier.
Wait, there has been a development, I can see a different font than courier if I change it to the same font the other person is using. But the others still don't work. Is there a setting hidden that I can't find that just needs to be changed???
1 AnswerMSN1 decade agoMy cat has chapped lips?
My cat seems to have chapped lips. Her upper lips are red and raw. Shes eating and drinking plenty of water, so its not bothering her too much, but when I tried to touch them, she pulled away. Her lips don't look swollen just red and maybe a little flaky. This seems to be new, as in the last few days, but its possible I just haven't looked very close. Shes also been sticking her tongue out after bathing more than she used to (maybe this isn't strange, but I thought it was worth mentioning).
A little background about her...
She was a stray that wandered onto my porch about two or three months ago. She has semi-long hair. She has 3 week old kittens (she was already pregnant when I found her, so please don't even start about getting her spayed, I'm working on it >.< ). When the kittens were only a week old, two of them died from some sort of infection so she (and through her milk the other kittens as well) was on antibiotics (clavamox) for a week.
I saw some stuff online about cats getting chapped lips, and then some people saying it can't happen. They definitely look chapped to me. I'm hoping this will clear up on its own, but in the meantime, is there anything I can do to help her? Maybe some kitty-cat chapstick?
I'm going to link a picture now. (I know it looks like I have a death grip on her head, but thats just because shes leery of me grabbing at her face because of the meds she was on).
4 AnswersCats1 decade agoWhy is my friend so Disgusting?
Okay, so a friend of mine has some issues and another friend and I were wondering if she possibly has a mental disorder.
First of all, shes disgusting. She showers maybe once a month, doesn't brush her teeth, doesn't bother with deodorant. She wears the same clothes all the time (not because she has none, my other friend is her roommate, she just doesn't like to change or do laundry). She smells and she doesn't care. Everything she touches is gross because she never washes her hands and she gets sticky. Not only that, instead of blowing her nose in a tissue, she blows the snot into her hand and then licks it up. Furthermore, she injured her big toe over five years ago, and its been infected ever since. She picks at it constantly and makes it worse. We've even caught her chewing on her toenail. She doesn't do these things for attention because most of the time she thinks we aren't looking.
Shes a slob in other ways as well. She leaves her dirty clothes on the floor, where she takes them off. Her bloody socks (blood from the aforementioned toe) will lay in the same place forever. Her roommate doesn't want to touch them for obvious reasons. She throws trash on the floor of her apartment instead of throwing it away, even when the trash is two feet away. She, uh, leaves excrement on the toilet seat, just because shes careless when she goes to the bathroom. (Not a lot, more like skid marks... on the back and Front of the seat...). My other friend who is her roommate is sick of it, since she has to live with her. Every time she tries to say something to her, she gets angry. She then makes my other friend feel bad about saying anything (shes sort of meek, and passive aggressive). My other friend is also worried because the disgusting one insists on cooking dinner and she never washes her hands.
So, now that you've read all that, are there any disorders that cause people to be that way? Could she talk to someone that would make her be less disgusting? And of course, I know a lot of things I could say to her, but I don't talk to her that often. I talk to her roommate and shes not mean enough to say what needs to be said. We're just curious what other people think we could do to actually help her. She also has issues with depression and we worry that if we just alienate her, she'll get suicidal (its happened before).
