Stuf that should exist

I was recently excited to hear about the upcoming Oreo triple-stuf as I am an avowed double-stuf fan, and have been known to franken two cookies together to forge a sublime quadruple-stuf. Any more stuf, and I’d have to spend time peeling it off of cookies and my stuf to mouth ratio over time goes down. I thought the triple stuf Oreo would be a gamechanger. An easy sextuple stuf within my grasp!

But NO, Nabisco, you had to go and fuck it up. An Oreo cookie is not TRIPLE stuf if the layering order is cookie, stuf, cookie, stuf, cookie. That’s triple COOKIE, not triple STUF. You’re tripling the part no one wants and ruining the delicate cookie to stuf balance!

I propose we eliminate the cookie and give the people what they want: stuf in a tube.

Makeup as an Assault Weapon

MAC is collaborating with noted photographer and artist, Cindy Sherman, who does a lot of self-photography, acting as photographer, makeup artist, hairstylist, and model. The promo images reflect that; they could be portfolio pieces. Unfortunately, they don’t make me want to buy makeup.

Their sole purpose seems to be to give me nightmares.

Me, and now, you. You’re welcome.

Furthermore, I thought her work was intended to reflect on what society expects of women–makeup and aesthetic surgeries and so on and are intended to be garish and unsettling–so why is she collaborating with a makeup company to sell products to women who feel pressured to conform to society’s beauty ideals? Or maybe that’s the reason the promo pictures are so off-putting and she’s having one over on MAC?
