OMG! Lipstick=Lead=Cancer! Run! Hide!

[QUOTE=Edward The Head]
I like this. Please don’t put lipstick on your lips, instead put the lead onto you hand. Brilliant!

No no, it leads in on your mouth, not in your hands.

ETA: Wow, I just realized how dirty those M+M’s commercials were. AHHH, part of my childhood is ruined! Ruined I tell you!

I don’t have a gold ring. Will I die?

Sure. Probably not for some time though.

I was reading a white paper the other day that linked saliva and stomach cancer.

It’s really nothing to worry about though, because it’s only a risk if it’s swallowed in small amounts over a long period of time.

Scientists announced today that saliva causes stomach cancer, but only when swallowed in small amounts over a looong period of time.

You want dirty, try listening to the commercials without watching them, or watch without the sound. They get away with A LOT in advertising!

Oh yeah, the OP - lead poisoning causes the coolest basophilic stippling in red blood cells (the cell in the top left quadrant with the arrow). Okay, this is mostly related to the OP. Somewhat related.

I’d send her the Snopes on that, but I know her response already: “They” are in on it, too, and want you to get sick so “they” can make big money off your treatment.

Snopes? In on these things? Nah, couldn’t be. But I did hear…

Interesting you should mention Mr. Limpet. Many of the millions of shades of lipstick contain that shimmery pearl-like stuff, which is fish scales. When you kiss those lovely shimmering lips, you are kissing a fish! Oh, my Cod. :eek:

Hmm, can’t imagine why.

My friend sent me this very important email about how lipstick contains lead which causes cancer, and instructs me to throw out all my lipstick after performing the following “lead test”. :eek:

Smear the lipstick on you hand and then rub your gold ring into the smear. If the lipstick turns black, it contains lead which causes cancer. Throw it away!! :rolleyes:

Send her one back informing her of the dangers of certain germs on paper money. To test it, you’ll need to send it to me, (address), and I’ll test it for you. Sadly, current data suggests that fully 98% of paper money is contaminated.

I’m guessing you’ll be compelled to dispose of it to prevent further contamination. You know, out of you’re concern for the well being of your fellow man.

Absolutely.

And I’ll have the receipts to prove it. :wink:

You mean elephantiasis. “Elephantitis” means an inflamed elephant.
