Excuse my ignorance, but a question in regards to the Livestrong wristband.
Is that the yellow bracelet people wear to support that Lance didn't caught blood doping because he had a really good Italian doctor.

yeah, that's it.



It's the yellow bracelet that's raised millions for cancer research.

The other thread reminded me how much I hate nose piercings. For me, it is a deal breaker.

As I said in my post, I do appreciate what it's done for Cancer research. But due to how he handles his personal life, and is the main spokesperson for it, I chose pink items over the yellow.

I respect your choice to wear and support it. It's just not my cup of tea any more.

EDIT: My mother is a breast cancer survivor, and more of a model citizen than Armstrong IMO. Hense the support more for pink than yellow.

Belief in god.

Fortunately it looks like it's generally on it's way out.

Oh, and the marginally associated use of the word "gay" to describe something as undesirable. As though there is anything wrong with being gay.

Gay also means happy, so perhaps you're understanding incorrectly.

In which way? Like a hoop or a stud? If its a hoop im not crazy about it, and if its a hoop going through both nostrils thats a DEFINITE deal breaker. But if its a diamond stud, for some reason I actually prefer it over none at all.

I hate the fad of having to know everything about random people on the internet such as what they do or do not like.

Yeah, that's what you meant you used it in an earlier post.

There are other warm cozy things you can wear on your feet that aren't as ghey.

Points for spelling it wrong though.

My uncle convinced his wife that those were not for show, but in fact they helped balance out the truck. She's just a little naive.

I guess unlike most of CP I do think they look good on girls. But what I don't like about them is that they obscure girls faces. I'd rather see a pretty girls face than a square foot of plastic.

BAH, the word has evolved.

If you want to complain about ghey be prepared to speak up for the mutes when someone uses the word dumb, mentally ######ed people when the term ######ed is thrown around, and for all the unintelligent people when stupid is used.
