Same goes for parts of Philadelphia and New York.

Well, true with blemishes, but I get them, and find that if I really take care of them with a skin treatment at night, they are very minimized during the day, and not an issue.
I just can't imagine my husband putting on acne medicine...he washes his face with a paper towel if he feels he needs it when he comes in...otherwise, he waits for the shower. what does he care if he gets a blemish? the cows will still like him, I will still like him and the guys down at the feed store and local cafe dont' care. It is just not something he thinks about.
but if we are going out his jeans better be pressed that's all I'm sayin' about that! (and he might SAY he doesn't...but he puts some thought in his shirts...in his narrow, gotta be a button down, not wild colored, long sleeve way....)
:laugh: :laugh:

I hate cutesy names for cities that get way overused, such as "The Big Apple," "The Big Easy," etc.

How about - and this one is even yucky for me to type - "Frisco?"
I do enjoy "Left Coast" though.
Oh, here's one I've loathed since I was a whippersnapper: "lady" this or that. "Lady doctor," for example. It's not used much anymore, but oy.

Or the flip side: "Male nurse." I bet male nurses hate that one.

"Left Coast" always makes me smile. :)
I haven't heard "Frisco" in a long time. These days I usually hear "San Fran," which always makes me think of somebody's Aunt Fran. ...
