It’s generally the intensity of the sun. Even if the sun is out, depending on the time of year and where you are the sun will be closer and stronger. I think it affects people more in areas that have longer winters. It’s more common than ppl know. Even though my parents are from the Caribbean and it immunity from the sun should be in my DNA I developed an allergy to the sun in my late 20s. If I’m out in the sun without sunscreen basically wherever a tan line would normally appear I get giant hives

The purpose of the blue side was to erase the indentation of handwriting from a pencil. When you use the pink side you can still read what was written so the blue side would rub off a small layer of paper (which was commonly much thicker back then) but ya ppl didn’t get it so they just said “use it for the pen…?”

I was referring to another comment 9n here saying that all ultrasounds look the same. They all look different. These ppl knowingly scammed their clients and should be sued

They don’t all look the same, especially the 3d ones. Those things aren’t even really safe to do and most drs advise against it. Many of those clinics aren’t even run by Drs. I would sue based on them having me do a somewhat risky procedure and not providing me with what i paid for…then saying is have to do it again…no thanks….you scammed your customers? Give me all your money

Most of these are tongue in cheek playing off of what “manliness” is supposed to be.

This was on CBC this morning. I saw him and thought “that homeless dog looks like a person, must be a cameo spot” and then changed the channel

The ones with the masks look totally different without them

This isn’t a new thing. They are custom made and reusable. Would I pay 2000$ for them? No, but this is 6 months of daily coffee runs for some people. Either way coffee or nails, waste of money….but its her money to waste. And yes we can all say “she could have donated that to charity” but what is preventing whomever she paid from donating it?

Unless it says “boy” or “girl” its not gendered…we are adults, get over it and teach your children that we don’t have to conform to gender stereotypes. Done. Some girls actually do like to be “girly” and want a pink hammer or shovel. There’s nothing wrong with that. The gendered foods have different minerals and vitamins geared towards what men/women should be consuming, gendered “teen packs” are a gi

The only thing in this article that you can really get upset at is the point about ads targeting certain names. Search results are organic and based on what people are clicking on. The ads are from an actual person at a company sitting down and thinking “if your name is La’Quan you’re probably in need of a lawyer” and then adding that name to a list of key words

Real cork is in short supply so that’s probably why it’s so pricey. Also I’m assuming if people are environmentally conscious then I’m sure they’d rather use a natural product than a foam one

With the other models they have a technician come out to install a charge station in your garage. I know someone who has a tesla and he says that ,once you put in your gps where you are going, it calculates the distance and how much power is needed and if the battery is getting low it automatically divert itself to the closest charging station so you will never be stranded on the side of the road.

Pour the milk first and add the cereal a little at a time as you eat it. That way it doesn’t get soggy and it like a fresh bowl with every bite….and I eat my pizza crust first because its the plainest part…why would you want to finish off pizza with a mouthful of plain bread?

The school was completely in the right. Gangs are no joke.I was once unknowingly recruited into a gang. One of the members saw me by myself recognized my weakness and started making me promises of all the things I could have…like ‘Buy 1 Get one 50% off jeans’ and ‘3 pieces of select jewelry for the price of 1’. Things started to get rough though because it was the middle of a turf war (boxing week) so we weren’t allowed to use the change rooms to try anything on. That’s when I decided to get out of the U.P gang. I was penniless, emotionally broken, and smelled like cheap plastic shoes….but I looked dope as hell

Don’t bus drivers stop at Tim Hortons anyway? Should have just waited 10 min and he would have gotten there….waste of a hijacking and you only get one of those in a lifetime, maybe 2 if you’re really crazy

It all has to do with what is considered modesty to some people. It would be like “western” culture saying cleavage is immodest so you wear a top with a higher neckline but you can still have a full face of makeup.  I’m not Muslim but personally think women look more beautiful with head scarves. It accentuates your features. I used to wear them because I liked the way they look.

Some ppl wear wigs just to change up their style. As far as black women wearing wigs, our hair is fragile so it can be difficult to change up our styles often and maintain healthy hair. Wigs are just another form of protective styling. I have long this natural hair and still wear wigs because I love my natural hair but still want to wear it long and straight and not have to put heat on it to keep it that way.

“You want to go out tonight? Okay just give me 2 years to grow my hair out so I can try this new style out…” its called versatility

Lol every black girl is sending this to her man right now. I’ve been with mine for over 9 years and he still doesn’t get that no matter how proud he is of my natural hair, it is not okay to run your fingers through it in public. The “carefree” curl took over an hour to achieve with 5 different oils from the deepest of Africa , space aged liquid polymer hair gel brought back from the future by Marty McFly, and me not moving my head while it all sets in the mid day sun….all to be ruined within 5 min of his hands getting to it….

When we first started dating I received texts in the middle of the night talking about Janet Jackson. The first one seemed like an actual text that maybe had a bunch of auto corrected words. When I responded his texts became more incoherent until it was just gibberish. Turns out he was sleep texting…fast forward 8 years nothing has changed. He wakes up throughout the night complaining about how he can’t sleep and then mid sentence he’ll start snoring. He woke me up last week in a near panic asking if I was doing the “filing” and wouldn’t settle down again until I assured him that I wasn’t. He works for a bunch of auto dealerships so apparently he was dreaming about bad filing and them losing cars because of it…

If someone is attacked and manages to get away perhaps the sewing kit is to mend any ripped clothing you might have. This product isnt be ok ng marketed to north americans. There are still some places / people who would be scared or ashamed to be seen with a ripped shirt or skirt despite the reasons behind it.

I think people have lost track of what Black Face actually is. Black Face is a mockery of black people by painting their face and acting in stereotypical buffoonery ways. Painting your face to look more like an actual character is not offensive. Unless she painted giant lips one her face, started jive talkin and talking like a mammy there shouldnt really be a problem. There was no intent to put on a minstrel show. I’m sure if they had a black friend she would have taken the roll of crazy eyes… maybe we should get upset by that, no token black friend to add witty comments to conversations while snapping her finger and winding her neck…

A) these dolls are not creepy, they defined a generation
B) this is a dumb buzzfeed… you guys are really reaching

Most of these guys’ knees dont go much further than the span of their shoulders. If their knees are bothering you then they should be complaining about you being too close and in their personal space.

hmmm…what? murderball? havent we seen this b4? k whatever…no chills…no chils….OMG CHILLS!…love it

Why would a little black girl wearing her hair in its natural state be considered “faddish”? Its okay for a Caucasian girl to wear her hair out but a black girl has to tie it down, or use chemicals and heat to make it lay flat?  My hair grow up and out, not down my back. Deal with it. Wearing my real hair out isnt a fad or a statement. Its just me. If someone cant see that then they shouldnt be working with young children.

Considering that I paid about $70 for a connection so my Tab 10 could connect to my TV but yet defeat the purpose of having a portable tablet because it still had to be physically connected to the tv and a power outlet (ie my lazy ass has to get up and walk across the room to select the next ep of whatever show I’m binge watching on Netflix)… I would take this any day.  Plug it in, toss the wires behind the TV and your good to go. Stop whining about cables. Do you also cry about how your Big Mac doesnt look like the picture?

Ya these “tips” are definitely for people who dont know anything about makeup beyond lip gloss goes on your lips

You realize that the ppl in the video are all well known YouTube personalities, right? The “dude” is hilarious and appreciated by his fans. Smashbox isnt trying to teach us anything in this video. Theyre drawing attention to their product by using YouTubers that already have a following amongst makeup enthusiasts.

This took me back I was obsessed with Jem (and Barbie and the Rockers), destroyed my dresser by covering it with Sheera Stickers, My husband used to be on You Cant Do That On Television. That little people dollhouse used to drive me insane because when you look inside you can see a little girl looking in from the backdoor & when you look at the back of the outside of the house you see the same girl look out from the inside at you….it blew little mind. I actually came across the original box last year. It had been used to store stuff in my parents garage for the past 30 yrs

You already pick up their shit and give them bowls of dry food(cheerios) to graze on all day, whats the difference? Kids dont care that they have a stuffed animal strapped to their back with a tether

The only people who object to a leash are people who dont have (or have never looked after) a child or parents who smother their children so much that hey strap them in strollers 24/7 or carry them until theyre 10.

I’m reading this while eating a piece of cake at 840am…does that count as a good breakfast?

point?…

Really? they did Civil Rights right? thats like saying “Congratulations on being forced to release all of those slaves you held onto 100 years after Europe did and then waiting another 100 years to acknowledge said slaves are actual people with rights and then waiting another 40 years before electing a half black person President” USA USA! The telephone was invented in Canada by a Scotsman and the first transatlantic phone call was made in Nova Scotia 

Some of these ads clearly depict violence against women but not all of them.  There are a few that are up for interpretation from the viewer but just because a few people see the story behind the picture as one way doesnt make it so. And there are others that depict sexual or erotic behavior that may seem dominating but who are we to say, for example, a man embracing his wife or gf from behind with his hand on her neck is wrong? Stop acting like women are perfect angelic beings that need to be protected from the “darker” of their sexuality

lol was about to add this to the “ignorant buzzfeed” list…well done Buzzfeed. Coincidentally I just watched an ep of New Girl last night where Schmit was letting Winston express his “blackness” and tried to score him some crack

I really dont see anything wrong with anything he said. You can find fault with anything anyone says if its out of context or if you already have in your mind that because the person saying it isnt peddling Birkenstock sandals and burlap sack frocks then they must have a skewed misogynistic view on women’s fashion.  They say that women dress for other women but what straight woman doesnt want to feel attractive to men? I’m not saying we want to have cat calls follow us down the street but to walk out of a room and leave ppl thinking “she looked really good” is not a bad thing

14 and 15 you can get pretty much at any drug store…Most women know about them and have used them once in their lives
23 you can find in a lot of public washrooms (especially in bars)
25 is a mint Ive seen in stores here as well…

Watched Superman III the other day. Christopher Reeves was ripped. There was a scene where he was visiting Lana’s house in Smallville and his thigh muscles were just ripping out of his tights…. and this was before we started shading the costumes to make it look like muscle…impressive
