Poll: Chapstick is:
  • 13.2% - Like crack. Gimme gimme gimme! 470

Well, how do you fare compared to the Zeitgeist? Chat up your fellow wooters and let us know how lame this poll was or what obvious choices we missed. For example: Was this poll a) STUPID, b) DUMB, c) POINTLESS or d) ALL OF THE ABOVE?

^^lol good stuff!


I just apply vasoline to my lips before I head out for the day. Never had a problem, or dry/hurt lips.

Of course it’s a brand name like ‘Kleenex’ or ‘Vaseline’ but you better excise ‘lip balm’ from your vocabulary! – Ask your mom for the ‘lip balm’ from her purse when you’re in line at the airport and some mf is gonna tell TSA you're a terrorist…

I think the official brand name might actually be Chap Stick as two words, but I'm not sure. Anyway, I'm 100% Blistex brand.

Chap Stick medicated the only way to go the burn means it's working. And it does not melt when I am working.

d All of the above--of course. It's pointlessness is the point. Those who voted (b) brand name or (c) lips hurt, are humorless literalists.

Chapstick is an inferior product compared to Carmex.

I apply Cherry Chapstick to my lips several times a day. Just thinking about chapstick is making my lips feel dry...

This right here. It's designed in a way to get you to need to use more. The cigarettes of your lips.

Using chapstick does NOT make ya less of a man! I'd rather kiss a guy with strawberry flavored lips than one with cracked lips! Although I might pass if he uses the Original 'flavor'. That stuff is kinda gross. I have a tube of it that I reserve for when my nose gets red from the sniffles, because I'd NEVER use it on my lips! Just so long as he doesn't have Fire Engine Red lips from using tinted stuff...

I swear the stuff is addictive. I started using it once, and basically used it for almost ten years before I finally was able to give it up.

Google "chapstick addiction" and you'll see that I'm not alone.

Burt's Bees is the only stuff I use now. It is the only product I have found can handle sub-zero temperatures without having to be reapplied a dozen time. Once in the morning and once around noon is all I need in any climate.

Signatures are harshing my mellow.

Just don't put it on before some sweet lovin' because it burns the other guy. Or something. I read that once. I mean, I wouldn't know because that's not the sort of thing I'd ever be associated with.

I'm allergic to Chapstick. It makes my lips burn like crazy and I get a rash around my mouth.

It's definitely not useless to those of us who purse and/or lick our lips all the time. It's a lifesaver!!!

Anyone who has taken Accutane knows chapstick or blistex are absolute necessities! While i was on it i probably used lip balm 30 times a day! Unfortunately its hard to get off the stuff (lip balm that is)

chapstick melted one too many times in my pocket or purse or car or school bag. I don't use it but don't judge anyone who does!!

Chapstick has petroleum products in it. I am allergic! So, overrated for me. If I use it, for a week after the skin ON my lips peels off. Painful and icky! ELF lip gloss is ok, UNPetroleum balm is FABULOUS, and I've tried a few others.
