Blisternew

I’ve often wondered out loud to myself while naked and submerged in the warmth of my bubbly decompression chamber, “Self, how many times does the shampoo mean when it says in somewhat uncertain terms, ‘Lather. Rinse. Repeat’?” Two times borders on half-yawned monotony. Six times starts to burn a little, while psychologically producing a mechanical sense of beauty slavery. But 17 times? That’s enough to make you old, make you lose your hair, quite possibly make you drip down the drain in a self-inflicted goo of bloody foam. Do. Not. Want.
