Tip {not} Use Vaseline daily to cure acne

mwahahahaha

micah told kyle that if he coated his face with vaseline daily, his acne would disappear. he advised this on the basis that vaseline would moisturize his skin, and that it is good because vaseline is CLEAN oil, as opposed to the rivers of oiliness on any teenager's face. so now micah is arguing with kyle, trying to convince him that if he sticks with it, all his acne will disappear within a week of daily application. 

lol. i first tried to correct kyle. but he stubbornly denied my attempts at enlightenment and now i'm joining forces with micah... sigh

real friends stab you in the front and bad friends stab you in the back. sympathetic but confused friends also stab you in the back.
