Tampons, and Other Unnecessary Products

I try not to think about all of the needless products that humans have produced over the last hundred years or so, because it makes me angry. Especially women. I mean, wake up America! We are killing our planet. Sheesh. There's just no respect anymore. So I have compiled a list of five products that woman could do without in today's world. Enjoy!

1.) Deodorant

Oh God. It pains me to think that every morning people are mindlessly swiping this harmful product over their armpits. Do they realize how many chemicals are in this stick of white powder? And don't even get me started on antiperspirant! That being said, I do realize that guys are much more smelly, and obviously in much more need of this product than womenfolk. So I guess exceptions can be made. But us females? We always smell like flowers! No wonder it's so costly for women's deodorant vs. men's. We simply don't need it!

2.) Razors

It's no surprise that women's razors cost more than men's. And why shouldn't they? Women are born pretty much hairless. It's guys that need to worry about their body hair. Even though the lumberjack look is in, and guys pretty much do have an option in whether or not they want to shave and... hm, where was I going with this? Oh right! Women only have to shave their armpits and their legs if they want to be socially accepted. Guys on the other hand, are required to shave their.... oh. Actually, I'm not sure if they're required to shave anywhere. Still. Women's razors cost more than men's because they simply don't need to purchase one.


3.) Haircuts

Now, this one really does make sense! I'll definitely be able to convince you here. Who needs haircuts? Not women! Long hair is in, my friend. Men are the only ones who should go to the hair salon, if we really think about it. You'll thank me later! For obvious reasons, women pay more for haircuts than men. After all, men have short easy hair to deal with. Women always have long, flowing hair, that is just a mess to try to cut. Oh, what's that? Even girls with pixie cuts often pay more than men? Well. I uh. Just go to the next one!

4.) Cars

Public transportation is your friend. Even if you live in Kansas. I'm sure you'll be able to find a bus station near you. And it saves you pain and heartache. What woman would want to deal with a car salesman? After all, any car salesman worth his salt will charge a woman more for a car than a man. We just don't know cars well enough to tell the difference, and will unknowingly pay the jacked up prices. It's honestly a very smart technique. Good job car salesman. I applaud you.

5.) Tampons

Well, this one is obviously a no brainer. Guys don't even use tampons, or pads, or other feminine products. And neither should we! The price could be considered ridiculous, if we needed such items. But I'm here with groundbreaking news. We don't! Go put a leaf in your underpants. That's how they did it in the olden times, and things worked out so perfectly then.

I hoped I've opened someone's eyes today. Please, think extra carefully about what you truly need!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
