Us guys, we can put up with a lot of mildly irritating stuff: Hair that inexplicably grows on our toes (and ears, and out of our noses), shaving our faces 20,000 times (on average) in our lifetimes and, of course, a crotch area that, no matter how...
For the entirety of his eight years in the ROTC and Army, Charlie Jasper didn’t spend a single moment constrained by underwear. After all, he was a commando himself, and “any man who doesn’t go commando in the Army is insane — or Mormon,” he tells me. In...
“If you’re into running, then you have a sh***ing story,” Jessie, a 36-year-old playwright in L.A., tells me. As a marathon runner for the past six years, she definitely has a few tales. The worst occurred at a half-marathon at the Red Rocks outside of Santa Barbara,...
There’s arguably nothing as uncomfortable as swamp ass — or, in plainer terms, an ultra sweaty crack. Unfortunately, in the middle of summer you don’t have much of a say in the muggy matter, but dermatologist Anthony Rossi has some tips on managing the moisture down under....
You may not have noticed your own bad breath until now, when you’re trapping your nostrils behind those face masks we’re all supposed to wear. Has your breath always been this bad? Probably, at least some of the time. Has anyone noticed? Again, probably. But the thing is, now, you’re the...

Quarantined or otherwise, people will almost certainly find a way to soak up the sun this summer, converting their backyards into beaches, planting lounge chairs on their patios and even climbing up onto their roofs if necessary. Hey, some people will truly stop at nothing to become...
On a train, or in a plane. In a house, or with a mouse — it doesn’t matter where, or who you are, headaches affect virtually everyone at some point in their life. We get them while we’re working, from straining to see the computer screen; we...
If you could only eat one thing a day and it had to be the same thing every day, you really only have two options: 1) You could eat a potato; or 2) you could eat rice and beans. For variety’s sake, don’t pick the potato. Admittedly,...
The shortest answer to this question is: Nothing good, unless you wish to be featured in the Guinness World Records and/or the nightmares of small children. Just ask Lee Redmond, who grew her fingernails out to a record-shattering combined length of 28 feet, four inches. Admirable though...
