Up until recently, I used to have pimples on my chin, neck, upper back and chest. It was never as bad as in my teens but I am still well into my 30s.

I read somewhere on reddit that you should rinse your hair conditioner off first and wash your body after, otherwise the conditioner running down the body clogs pores. My whole life, in order to shower efficiently, I would shampoo and leave my conditioner in while I washed and shaved, and finish with rinsing away the conditioner.

I switched the sequence as recommended and I haven't had a single pimple on my back, neck and torso yet. I feel so dumb.

I didn't know it was actually extremely painful. I thought it was just a tick to move your leg 😭😭

IWTYO age 52, when I realized that Beastie Boys Root Down references The Meters Cissy Strut and Look Ka Py Py in the lyrics. Have listened to this song and album hundreds of times. Getting more into funk and jazz because my 12 yr old son is playing drums. Trying to expose him to different drum styles. He appreciates the Meters and AWB cant wait to intro him to this linkage. Love showing my kids the original music that they hear samples from! They dismiss it as Unc/ dad lore but someday they will appreciate!
