Chapstick

I am convinced that Chapstick just chaps your lips more. Think of people who use Chapstick regularly… They can’t stop. There’s always a stick in their pocket, their desk, or stuck in their pants like a holster.

Imagine being a Chapstick CEO. Why would you want it to work? If it worked, people will buy one tube of Chapstick that will last them for years. (ok 6 months, if you factor in that all Chapstick tubes will mysteriously vanish at some point in time).

So they make a product that causes more chapping. And voila, presto. You have yourself a society of addicts.

**I have yet to conduct similar experiments with burt’s bees (burt freaks me out) but I will say that any sort of Vaseline or Aquaphor will actually solve the chapping problem. How many people do you see carrying around those disgusting tubs of Vaseline? It must work.
