Topic: Need Motivation

I got out of the hospital late last night; I told my doctor I had the flu, she insisted I was having a heart attack and wanted to call an ambulance. Anyhow, it was pneumonia. The problem is I have a very manly chest and those gosh darn heart monitor sticky thingies hurt like heck even when you pull them off in the shower (they refused to shave my chest first); so I am still staring at the shower and probably getting a little stinky. Can anyone help kick my butt into the shower?

Put some w-d 40 on those stickies for a few mins. they will come off easy. Or you can use baby oil, or mineral oil.

Holy moley, those things stick even without hair :-) Gird your loins, maybe some cuticle scissors?

Watch an episode or two of Jackass to mentally prepare. Get a stick for between your teeth and call a friend to yank those bad boys off! Don't forget to film it for YouTube... Or.... You could just get adhesive remover pads from the pharmacy ... I think the active ingredient is mineral oil...vegetable oil might also work. May the force be with you.

Can anyone help kick my butt into the shower? JUST DO IT! You will be exhausted but the steam is good for you and the "clean" is a mind enhancing drug that can't be beat! GO!GO!GO!GO!

Mantra: The SOAP IS MY FRIEND! THE WATER WILL NOT CARRY ME AWAY TO THE LAND OF WIND AND GHOSTS! MY MOMMY DOES NOT LIKE A STINKY SON! I MIGHT GET A SPANKING! THERE IS NOTHING TO FEAR FROM CLEANLINESS! If you are not motivated now I can suggest a electric cattle prod!

Squirt lighter fluid on them and set'em on fire...That won't help loosen them up any, but it will make you forget about how much it hurts to pull'em off..

Just think to yourself: What would Robin Williams do?

Soak them down good with baby oil a few times and they should slide off easier. Plus you'll be baby soft and smell really good
