I guess redemption is possible for anyone - even a nasty boy.  (Hark! A Vagrant)

Gah, I HATE this ad campaign from Playtex for feminine wipes.  Feminine wipes and their partners-in-crime, feminine douches, are NOT good for your ladybits.  Period.  Advertisers and product manufacturers, stop trying to make us feel bad about our body parts!!  (The Gloss)

Finally, there's a cure for hipster, the greatest scourge of this generation.
