KSB2424 3,083 Posted May 31, 2018 actually finished a Chap Stick from start to finish? As in used it all the way through without outright losing it or putting it in the washer and/or dryer? I don't think it's ever been done. Do we have any anomalies here at the Geek Club? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KSB2424 3,083 Posted May 31, 2018 I wonder how many half used Chap Sticks are laying right now in America......... in-between couch cushions, under car seats, behind furniture, in the yard, etc. A million? 10 million? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

patweisers44 697 Posted May 31, 2018 Never use the stuff. I try to stay plenty hydrated and hate the feeling of having that stuff on. much like sunscreen, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
posty 2,296 Posted May 31, 2018 I don't believe you. It isn't that difficult... I use like three of them... One I keep at work on my desk, one at home on my dresser and the other I keep in the car... I never lose them because they always go back in the same place and I never take them anywhere by putting them in my pocket... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted May 31, 2018 I have a Chapstick like product that was given out with a company logo in my work backpack. Can't see ever finishing it off. I usually use those little round container ones that you stick your finger in it. Sometimes use the little squeeze tube that I keep in my car. I think that I have made the end of each of those before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kopy 491 Posted May 31, 2018 When I was a kid, I did framing for a couple years. In the winter time, I used to always carry 2. 1 for my lips, the other for my nose. I'm not afraid to say, i'd shove that some b!tch up my nose and it worked awesome. After a while, i always lost them both though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted May 31, 2018 I use the Carmex ones... I use something that is in a pink container. I think that Carmex is white with a yellow cover. I just use whatever my wife puts in my stocking for X-mas. Easy thing for her to buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted May 31, 2018 I use the Carmex ones... Yeah, I like Carmex too. Burts bees is ok too. Someone gave my girlfriend some of those and I stole one. But to the op, no, Ive never finished one. They always wander off first. Kind of like a cigarette lighter. Ive owned thousands of them. Probably had them run out of fluid on me less than ten times ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iam90sbaby 2,125 Posted May 31, 2018 Did your source discuss the third muscle? I found it. The gene is called ABCC11. Apparently a lot of Eastern Asians specifically Koreans don't carry this gene. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ABCC11 According to a LiveScience article from 2013, scientists discovered there was actually a gene called ABCC11, which determines if a person is smelly or not. Those who produce a dry version of earwax apparently also lack the same bacteria that festers in underarms and causes odor. Huh. The reasoning, this Guardian article explains, was because those who produce dry earwax also don’t produce the protein that transports sweat out of pores in our armpits, which attracts bacteria that cause body odor. “While only 2-percent of Europeans lack the genes for smelly armpits, most East Asians and almost all Koreans lack this gene,” an expert named Ian Day, a genetic epidemiologist at the University of Bristol, told the publication Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bring six or so sticks back every year, as they dont sell deodorant much in china. Im getting low, hope I make it till July. Since they sell it in Panzhihua, they must sell it everywhere. Not even Walmart, just some focking generic supermarket with the name only in Chinese. It is harder to find though as selection is way down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
