The EVIL! that Is Man of Steel. I should have listened to everyone. You ALL said Man of Steel was an awful movie. I had hopes after I saw the first shirtless scene, but then I fell asleep midway through. I woke up convinced my house had exploded. Ninety minutes of whooshing and booming had polluted my dreams.
The EVIL! that is Visine. Did you know that Visine damages your eyes? The vaso-constrictors that "get the red out" makes your eyes redder when they wear off. A vicious evil cycle! You have to only buy the Visine that has one ingredient: Lubricant. I heard this from my ophthalmologist. Chapstick, however, is a habit and not an addiction.
The EVIL! that is ToeJammers (name approximate). I must have seen the commercial on CNN - but I only saw it once. It seemed to recommend one pay twenty dollars for four black beer cozies one could place around the feet of ones bed. They were printed with the name of the product, which I think might have been "ToeJammers," because they were to protect you from stubbing your toes on the bed frame. The commercial only ran once that I saw, perhaps because I screamed "IT'S A BEER COZY" at my screen. I can't find any reference to them on the web, so perhaps I dreamed this evil.

REALLY weird ones - trade stubbed toe for a trip into a broken nose:

I don't care what YOU or ANYONE ELSE says Chapstick, or any of the commercial lip balms, are completely addictive. I fall into a panic if I leave home and don't have one tucked in my bra, (for quick access) and at least one in purse or pocket (for back up if the bra one gets lost). If that is not addiction I don't know what is.

~~Silk - They were like your first one, but they had the name of the product printed garishly on each. The last one was interesting especially since it suggested they might be made to spout comical noises if you did indeed stub you toe on them.
Zayrina - Has the overuse of chapstick sapped your lips of the ability to keep moist on their own?

I really really didn't like the final fight in Man of Steel. It ruined the whole movie for me.

Yeah, it did. I totally fell asleep. I'm a huge comic book nerd, and I fell asleep. Bad director, no biscuit.

Tami - I hear Pacific Rim is much the same.
