O-h, get some hot water and mix some salt in it, then dip a cotton ball in it. Put the cotton ball on the zit for about 3 minutes. It should help. Otherwise, ice cubes reduce swelling and eye drops reduce redness.

Have you ever seen The Night Before? He's a dorky high-school kid and Lori Loughlin plays the prom queen/cheerleader who loses a bet or something and so she has to go to the prom with him. He ends up getting lost in a shady part of town, then drugged, and some guy steals his car, and somehow Lori Loughlin's character gets sold to a p|mp and handcuffed to a motel bed in her underwear.

Wow, I just realized it sounds like I'm describing a p0rn movie. Not the case. It's actually a comedy from the 80's. Before his Bill and Ted days.

Of course, they end up lolling in fuv.

Blood alone moves the wheels of history! Have you ever asked yourselves in an hour of meditation, which everyone finds during the day, how long we have been striving for greatness? Not only the years we've been at war, the war of Highest-Post-Counts. But from the moment, as a child, when we realized that the world could be conquered. It has been a lifetime struggle. A never-ending fight. I say to you, and you will understand, that it is a privilege to fight! We are warriors!

Users of The Office Message Board, I ask you, once more, rise and be worthy of this historical hour. No revolution is worth anything unless it can defend itself! Some people will tell you that Post-Wh0re is a bad word. They'll conjure up images of forum Trolls and lowly Spammers. This is our duty to change their perception. I say, Office Flans and Post-Wh0res of the world, unite! We must never acquiesce. We must never concede control of this Message Board's Highest Post Counts, for it is... TOGETHER THAT WE PREVAIL!
