Things people have told me that have ruined my life

  1. Bugs can crawl in your mouth while you’re asleep and then you swallow them
  2. All girls grow up to look like their mothers
  3. If you flush the toilet with the lid open, poo particles drift out of the bowl and land on your toothbrush

Who has ruined your life? What did they tell you?

Mainly when I see my peers in the music industry acheive any level of success while I languish in obscurity.

Statistically, people are thought most attractive at 17…

17 seems like a long time ago and I don’t remember being very attractive back then…

That one about the toilet ruined me. Now I flush with the lid closed, and I close the door behind me, and anyone else in the house who does not do the same gets passive-aggressive post-it notes.

Yes. I am that room-mate.

We have little parasitic mites on our eyelashes that basically hang on by hugging individual lashes.

Oh, and that we shed pounds of dead skin every year and that 90% of dust is our own dead skin.

Pretty much any factoid with the words “dead skin” and/or “sloughing.”

I keep my toothbrush in a travel case, which then gets shut in the cabinet.

There is always a solution. I think they call it OCD.
