"think you're a star much?"<br/><br/>Meg: That is definitely a private endeavour..<br/><br/>Angela: OhhhhH!! I think this girl on the subway did it EVERY DAY from what I can gather...<br/><br/>Chica: ;) Hence why the medical disclaimer..<br/><br/>Looby: Ohhh. In that case I apologize for the 'bitches' comment. It was more of a tongue-in-cheek moment of writing than a real comment about them being "awful" people personally. <br/><br/>Hey, you may not be ready for this - but would you consider writing a post about it? I'd like to have it as a follow up to this article just so people see the other side of things instead of my own bullheaded/bitchy viewpoint... email me at <b>brokeinthecity at gmail dot com</b> ok?<br/><br/>Apresenta: ;) That's why it's so funny lol<br/><br/>Ridonkulus: THAT MAKES SENSE!

Hey, you may not be ready for this – but would you consider writing a post about it? I’d like to have it as a follow up to this article just so people see the other side of things instead of my own bullheaded/bitchy viewpoint… email me at brokeinthecity at gmail dot com ok?

Apresenta: ;) That’s why it’s so funny lol

Ridonkulus: THAT MAKES SENSE! Or like cigarettes right?

I think a bit of both would make sense – hungover AND high?

I wasn't (I have Ulcerative Colitis, essentially my intestines were so inflamed that I wasn't able to absorb the food I was eating). <br/>I guess I also was a bit offended at the bony bitches comment, are they bitches just because they are too skinny?<br/>I'm sure I'm reading more into it than you intended and I'm sorry to hijack the comments but it's still a sore spot to think about how I was judged and treated when I was that skinny (it's bad enough when you know you look bad without others literally telling you that you look disgusting) even though it was several years ago.

I’m sure I’m reading more into it than you intended and I’m sorry to hijack the comments but it’s still a sore spot to think about how I was judged and treated when I was that skinny (it’s bad enough when you know you look bad without others literally telling you that you look disgusting) even though it was several years ago.

So, when we are on the subway, at a concert/club, car blinkers at night or anything with strobes or blinking lights she has to wear sunglasses or she gets a migraine immediately. <br/><br/>Of course, that is not to say that there aren't some peeps wearing sunglasses indoors just because they are wankers. :) On wearing sunglasses indoors: My gf gets migraines pretty severely from things like blinky lights.

I don’t put my makeup on while riding the El on a daily basis… I just do it from time to time. Usually, there are two reasons.

1. I’m running very late.
2. I’m bored.

If I have time, I’ll do my makeup at home. And most days, I don’t wear makeup at all. But if there’s space to do it, and I have nothing better to entertain myself with, might as well put on makeup.

I accept the occasional quick clip, as someone who has been driven nuts by hangnails or rough spots before. However, you get one or two quick, discreet clips -- not a full manicure. <br/><br/>I've sat next to people in small college classes who don't seem to have any issue with giving themselves a full, and I mean a full manicure complete will filing and sometimes even polish.
