    Worst Advice You've Ever Gotten

    What's the worst advice you've ever gotten? For me, as far as keeping snakes, it's this;
    "You don't need the lid. Ball pythons don't like to climb."

    And in other areas of life, it's this;
    "Just ignore him and he'll lose interest. It's not like he's stalking you."

    What's the worst advice you've ever been given?

    "They can live in colonies. You can put several together and they make a great display." - 'They' being corn snakes. The breeder who sold me my first cornsnake boy (which he called an anery, amel, with the 'patternless' gene but was actually a whiteout) told me that when I asked about whether or not he needed a separate tank from my girl.

    "Let's do it! What's the worst that can happen?" -My sister on going to meet up with some guy who was flirting with her online. After an 8 hour car drive, missing a college final, and her finding out he was engaged, I decided maybe we should go back home. Love her to death but sometimes, I wonder what she's thinking.

    lol if a girl ignores me, i want her more. why else would girls play "hard to get" with guys they like. yall know this. now if a girl straight up tells me to screw off, on to the next one.

    Re: Worst Advice You've Ever Gotten

    In retrospect, it wasn't necessarily advice, but that's how I took it! About five years ago I decided that I wanted Angelina Jolie lips, but without the needles. I read this article in Cosmo about lip plumping glosses and it said that a key ingredient in most of the good ones is Cayenne Pepper.

    Because I'm really smart and always thinking outside the box, I thought if one little speck in an entire tube will have a plumping effect, imagine how gorgeous I'll be if I use an ENTIRE CAP of it mixed with just enough water (I even used distilled, because magic can't be taken lightly) to make a paste!!

    I did. I rubbed it all over my lips. I got it on my teeth, and under my finger nails. I had burned blotches of face for more than an entire day!! I haven't tried to make my own make up again, I just leave it to the experts these days.
