It’s that Chapstick time of year. Millions of people, young and old, male and female, run to the local market to buy themselves some good ol’ Chapstick, the waxy lip balm for dried up, scary looking lips.
But ever since I used the product in elementary school, I felt like the more I used it, the more I needed it, as if my lips started to depend on the salutory effects of the balm. Soon I *needed* the stuff. Since then, I’ve believed that Chapstick should really be re-classified as a drug. So many people just use the stuff indiscriminately and constantly between the months of November to November that I’m always surprised they don’t think twice about it. Don’t believe me? I did find this.
